One thing that seems to be lacking, from the outside looking in, is lack of accountability. There is so much secrecy surrounding this team, it's hard to get a read. THAT is a big reason you see so much speculation on here.....what the hell else is there to go by?

It is easy to say change, but what exactly are the details. Change for the sake of change does not fix anything. you have to identify the specific problems in order to improve them. Otherwise you will probably change tonnew problems or just keep repeating the old ones.
In my opinion, and yes I know I'm just a 'message board poster'...there are 3 things that the Bengals could try, which they haven't to this point, that would definitely be a change in approach and that could 'potentially' lead to better overall results:
Mike retires as Bengals President and gives Katie the opportunity to freely run the franchise.
Hire an experienced/respected football person (from outside the organization) to be a true GM.
Take a chance in free agency (when needed) as far as signing a top tier player now and then.
