Keep up and the window will always open, but for the Bengals it will be tougher than any other team. I believe next year you will watch and cheer for the team again.
It's no surprise that the NFL hates the Bengals. The story of how Paul Brown created the Bengals, to Mike Brown years continue to go against any NFL decision. They changed the rule in the playoff 35 years ago costing us a SB and changed rules this midseason and questionable refs. Mike is like a small local shop owner compare to other ones. AFL or NFL, this team has been through so much heartbreak and frustration.
Many people might be confused but the NFL doesn't have a vendetta against Burrow/Chase. They have an issue with Burrow and Chase playing for the Bengals. If Burrow's on other teams, he wouldn't have ref calls against him to this degree. The NFL understands there are only a few players in the league who can generate this much attention. This loss maybe a blessing for him and Chase. He might be very good or borderline elite on any other playoff team but this team needs a super elite qb and receiver to overcome all of this. He needs to improve more for the sake of reaching the SB again in this team. Mike's pop up shop aka the Bengals might never have an elite oline like the eagles, chiefs, cowboys, sf, or even the ravens/browns. This team won't have Andy Reid/Shanahan but a very young HC. When I think all about it, I might just enjoy every single game next season instead of thinking too far.
Ranting this much and I know for a fact you and I will continue to watch this team next season and hope there's a miracle despite all of these things.
