I remember in 2011, we won game one with Dalton and Green, then lost 2 in a row.. then we reeled off 3 straight wins to be sitting at 5-2 before the bye.. the Bengals are being talked about around town.. .. and we win two more after the bye and 7-2 record the Bengal crowds were rocking and that helped .. Look back at 2011.. we had so many games within a score either way win or lose.. that is what we need to do this year.. win the close games in the 4th like we did in 2011 and that will give us a chance at end of season.

Yeah, unrelated but your post made me think of this:  Where you say the Bengals are being talked about around town.  They certainly aren't being talked about nationally.  Like the recent hype video that starts with Stephen A(hole) Smith, Colin Cowherd, and even Carson Palmer putting down the organization....I have to think our guy Burrow is sitting there thinking:  "When I arrived at LSU, they had an archaic, non-competitive offense that couldn't ever beat the big boys.  I changed that".  Now, he wouldn't say that out loud or to a media personnel, but I have to think this 200-1 odds to win the Super Bowl is pretty insulting and the team might have a bit of a chip on their shoulder, or whatever analogy you want to use.

I am personally glad no one is talking about them.  Whatever gets the team motivated.
