I could hear Niner fans chanting 'Defense' in our own house 4 mins into the game.
What a pathetic showing from the fans. It's not right to blame the fans, but we had a chance to start anew with something fun and exciting. Fans made it clear very quickly they want nothing to do with that.
The Bengals currently have the worst attendance percentage in the NFL this year. That means very little at the moment since it was only one game, but there was around 50,000 people at kickoff, good for 77% capacity. It doesn't look like this team is a good enough product to improve on that, at least right now.

As to the OP, I don't think the jerseys did it as much as the weak team. Cincinnati is simply not a very good team right now. Too many holes.
