If being a Bengals fan is so horrendous that all you can do is B and W about every little thing and never enjoy anything about the team, and them winning a playoff game is all so important to your psyche, why turn it on? Why not choose another team or another sport so you can be happier? I think some people just enjoy wallowing in misery. Plenty to be excited about with this team, and I am also looking forward to watching them this year, as with every year.

Sunk cost.

Sure, let's try to have management curb the whining instead of encouraging it..That would be something new.

They had a great defensive coordinator in Zimmer, Hue Jackson had the offense hummin along.  

I mean nobody is ever going to confuse Lou for Mike Zimmer.  Just isn't gonna happen. 

And so far Hue Jackson is way above a play caller than Zac Taylor is.  

We might as well just say Brian Callahan is just a coach because he's only offensive coordinator in title.  

You had an All Pro WR in AJ Green, and 2 additional threats supporting him, with a healthy Eiffort.  

Then defense you had Geno, Burfict, Reggie Nelson, Pacman, ect on a defense that what pretty well ranked in the NFL that year. 

So maybe you over look the Marvin, Dalton years but I was pretty damn excited going into that season in 2015.  

Sad to see what t

I was excited about 2015 as well, but if I am being realistic with myself, I didn't see Dalton as a QB that could win the Super Bowl.  He was having a fantastic season and we will never know (which sucks arse) but in the offseason leading up to the regular season, I have more optimism now.
