The Bengals defense was a proven commodity that they were year in and year out a great squad. Was it VERY disappointing when they shit the bed? YES! I just think some fans and the media cut them slack because A.) They're not the QB (easiest target), and B.) They've proven to be great

But how great are they if they continue to shit the bed in the playoffs?

I just don't understand why better players are held to lower standards. It should be the opposite. Think of it this way: you have 2 kids, twins, and they take all the same classes. One is always getting A's the other is always getting C's. On their final exam, they both get Fs. According to some Bengals fans, you should ream out the C student and punish them severely and the A student should just be like, "Meh," Seriously? I just don't get it.
