14. Green catches 70+ yard touchdown

How great has it been to watch the Bengals so far this season when looking at the results from the previous two years? For a team that was facing a ton of pressure to become a contender once again in the AFC, Marvin Lewis must be thrilled over the team’s 3-1 start, even if they still have a long way to go when it comes to proving themselves.

Watching Cincinnati remain calm towards the end of last week’s win over the Atlanta Falcons before Andy Dalton connected with A.J. Green in the final seconds for the game-winning touchdown shows how different things are this year. As impressive as it’s been to see the Bengals start off this year on a hot note, now the pressure comes to continue their success over the next couple of months to give them a better chance of reaching the playoffs.

With a home game on Sunday, Green could be in for another big game to pick right up where he left off in Week 4, as Dalton will look to get the football in his hands as much as possible. Predicting a long touchdown from Green sounds bold, but isn’t that the whole point of an article like this one?
