I agree that the Pendulum has swung far to the bad side in 2019 but not to the extreme "not competitive at all or ever" point.

I personally think that hopeful signs can be found in close losses (against playoff caliber teams especially)

Maybe at times the Bengals have resembled an NFL team in 2019 but not as often or consistently as we would hope.

So we resembled an NFL team twice all year?

I posted numbers earlier comparing this years team to the 1993 team. We didn't get beat by 40 points every game in 1993 either. In fact, the margin of defeat was fairly close.

The bottom line is we are the worst team in the league. You can find whatever hope you want in that, but tanking teams like the Dolphins have 3 wins.
