I'm sorry but the Bengals should have wiped the floor with the Texans. No team as good as the Bengals should ever play as bad as they did in that game. "Any Given Sunday" is all well and good for a game like this past Sunday between the Ravens and Steelers, but not that Texans at Bengals game. That was an embarrassment and should have never had happened.
"Playoff Team" is another that should never gain traction for the reasons stated in the OP.
Another that gets on my nerves is "There are no bad teams in the NFL". I'm sorry, the Cleveland Browns are a bad team. They have only 3 wins for a reason and that reason is because they are bad.
I'm with you on this one. In my eyes, we should have destroyed the Texans, especially considering that their starting quarterback got injured and they had to put in T.J Yates for the remainder of the game.
And the notion that there are no bad teams in the NFL is laughable. The Browns and Raiders are consistently two of the worst teams in the NFL almost every year. The Raiders haven't had a winning season since they went to the Super Bowl (And lost) in 2002. The Cleveland Brown's last good season was in 2007 when they went 10-6. To put it more into perspective, the Browns record over the last 10 years is 57-119 and the Raiders are 54-121
