The Good, Bad and Ugly of the Cincinnati Bengals' First 4 Games of the Season

The Cincinnati Bengals are off to a hot start in the 2012 NFL season with a 3-1 record, good for second place in the highly competitive AFC North.

As with any early-season adjustment period for a young team, there have been a variety of good, bad and ugly factors that have impacted the roster and coaching staff to this point, but can either be corrected or further improved upon as the season wears on toward the postseason. 

Cincinnati started the season off in a bad way, losing to the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football 44-13. 

Since then, the Bengals have been on fire, recording victories over the Cleveland Browns, the Washington Redskins and the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Cincinnati currently has a wave of momentum that the team could ride for quite some time, but for now let's examine the good, bad and ugly of the Bengals' first four games of the 2012 campaign.
