My problem is that they act like we're the only franchise that can ruin Joe Burrow, while at the same time muttering under their breath that Joe Burrow "really isn't that good."
We were the definition of 'mediocrity' not 'ineptness' this last decade. If we were talking the 90's, they'd have us.
Since 2010, in the regular season at 77-81-2 we won 48.7 percent of our games.
That puts us ahead of the LA Chargers (48.1), Chicago (47.5%), Arizona (47.5%) LA Rams (45.9%), Detroit (45.3%) Buffalo (44.4%), NY Giants (43.8%), Miami (43.8%), Tennessee (43.1%), NY Jets (42.5%), Oakland (39.4%), Washington (39.0%) Tampa Bay (36.9%), Jacksonville (31.9%), Cleveland (26.4%).
Some of these teams even had Future HOF coaches, QB's and players and we still won more games then they did. So this notion that you can't win in Cincinnati, but other places is ridiculous.
Cincinnati is definitely unique, no question about it, but hopeless? No.
Great post TBM. All true. We aren't that other team in Ohio these guys were all pimping before the year thank God lol
