2017 is fixing to be a giant ball of boring while waiting for the inevitable 8-8ish season followed (if we're lucky) by a swift playoff embarrassment.
Compared to other teams, the Bengals give next to nothing for fans to talk about. They ignore FA. They often make rookies sit behind vets for several years, and they are the most loyal/lazy/chickenshit team in the league when it comes to firings. Literally the only new thing we can talk about is the draft, and which players are likely to sit our bench for 3 years. Hey, maybe we'll get a long term replacement for Nuge 3 years too late.
This is exactly how I feel. This team needs to make some kind of change, but we know they won't. The excuses are lined up and Hobsy will push out an article saying this was just a freak season and things will turn around. Our offseasons are such a snoozefest. We're going to watch Zeitler walk because of the ridiculous money that guards got last offseason. The only thing we'll be able to count on is what kicker will we sign to take over the kicking job.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
