- Bengals blow it, as usual
- Burfict and Jones are thugs
- Marvin Lewis can't win when it counts
- Andy Dalton sucks (yes, people in my experience are more likely to blame a QB who didn't even play in that game than Hill)
 etc.

I maintain that the reason Hill is such a dog in this town is because we went into 2015 declaring that he'd be the main reason we won and we ended 2015 declaring that he was the main reason we lost.  Peaks 'n' valleys.

Yeah well..everyone wants to be the hometown hero, huh? You just never hear players say, "I hope that I get blamed for all our failures over one stinking, lousy play!" 
People make all kinds of statements that later come back to haunt them especially now in the age of gotcha-ism twitterism journalism .
