Well it was win ONE of TWO games...

It is good to see the experts coming out on Twitter saying how terrible the Bengals were screwed, sad that we have our own fans thinking this is just fine and dandy.

I don’t quite think it’s fine and dandy. I just think there are arguments that folks aren’t willing to hear. e.g., how long the coin flip takes is irrelevant given its intended purpose (it accounts for uncertainty as a mathematical object).

I do think there are issues with consistency. The coin flip thing should be applied the same way in the other rounds (or the neutral field should be applied to Baltimore instead). I think it’s fair to beef with draft position and schedule alignment for the 2023 season.

I’m just trying to apply some nuance instead of screaming all over the thread and insulting everyone in my unbridled outrage. I don’t really care if you think that makes me a bad fan or dense or whatever else.
