Some fans may love it  but it is a lack of focus and is what losers do.  Teams like the Patriots would not tolerate it one second but Bengals history shows they like players running around like idiots.  Something team must address if they ever want to win....I could use a week off from watching them implode on the field.

I would love to be wrong but as of now I'd have to say we nees to pack it up on the season. I agree the team running around like idiots is a major problem. However, its not something a bye week will fix. It's something a HC change could fix. Name me one disciplined team under Marvin that you can think of. I can't think of any. 

Just a couple other things I noticed from your post. We have 4 AFCN games left not 5 unfortunately. Also we were full strength for the Redskins game. We got Eifert back and he did make a difference. Unfortunatwly he is not on the defensive side of the ball. Our D-line gets no pressure and our DBs play soft coverage as evidenced on even the 3rd and longs yesterday that were uncontested. This is also the side of the ball where we usually get our personal fouls. The D is just not very talented and they don't play smart. Only way I see us making the playoffs is if the D has some self realization and turnaround in the next couple weeks. Otherwise OBJ and Eli are gonna have a field day and our season really will be over.
