Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase, who didn’t participate in training camp last year, is off to a much different start this offseason.

Winning in Week 1 and starting the season on the right note would be the best thing for Cincinnati. The slow starts have crippled the team down the stretch and with Chase, Burrow and Higgins healthy and ready to go, the Bengals should be competing for a Lombardi Trophy every year.

The Bengals haven't won a Week 1 game since the 2021 season, which was receiver Ja'Marr Chase's rookie year. Since then, it's taken the Bengals at least until Week 3 (or in last season's case, Week 4) to win their first game of the year.
