You're saying that the Bengals lost because of the fact that they did not have their QB. I mentioned the fact that the Ravens didn't have their QB, 4 of their top 5 receivers, their RB, their TE, and half their line. I'll never blame their season on that, the D was playing god awful for the first half of the season (and then was the best pass D after all the offensive injuries... imagine that). I bring it up because Bengals fans have said it's not an excuse. 

You can't say losing a QB is the reason you lose for your team and then say that it's not the reason another team lost games, especially when it was a SB MVP QB and many more offensive starters.
