Cincinnati Bengals Record 1983:  7 wins and 9 losses

The Cincinnati Bengals got off to a horrible start by losing 6 of their first 7 games, as Cincinnati Bengals Quarterback Ken Anderson struggled with too many interceptions due to a young offensive line struggling to protect him.  The Cincinnati Bengals would finish the season strong wining 6 of their final 9, but with a disappointing 7-9 record, Bengals Coach Forrest Gregg resigns after the season and former Cincinnati Bengals Quarterback Sam Wyche is hired as Head Coach of the Cincinnati Bengals.  

This was a very difficult year in Bengals history due to the fact that Forest Greg had led the Bengals to their first Super Bowl and had over come so many obstacles including the Cincinnati Freezer Bowl to get to the Super Bowl.  Forest Greg would end his Bengals Coaching career with a 557 winning percentage which stands as the highest winning percentage of any Cincinnati Bengals Coach in the history of the franchise.  Cris Collinsworth was one of the few bright spots of the season gaining 1130 in receiving yards.

Scored 346 points (21.6/g), 16th of 28 in the NFL.
Allowed 302 points (18.9/g), 6th.
Differential of 44 points (2.8/g), 8th.
