At this point none of the bad things matter. If the Bengals went undefeated they couldn’t be in a better position. The Jets game. The Browns game. The missed FGs against GB. None of it matters. You can’t do better.

Oh and as a student equipment manager my son will be on the sidelines for a Super Bowl. Crazy. (Thought I’d drop that in. )

True. You just need to make the playoffs.

Even in the playoffs it matters. Home vs away and seeding, but once you get to the SB they don’t count.

Winning fixes everything. Or in this case going to Super Bowl

Now, let's get that ring.

Might have to dye your hair and steal his card 

We at the very least, will have achieved as much as that 18-1 Patriots team. I hope we achieve as much as some of their other teams did!

But you're right, all the intangibles are overcome-able. Any given Sunday and all that.

Something else that's funny? I've just read (not verified it myself), that we've won as many playoff games in the past 2 weeks, as the Dallas Cowboys have in 25 years. Unbelievable to be talking about our Bengals in that context in the playoffs.

Doesn’t pay a whole lot but I imagine sideline Super Bowl tickets go for quite a bit. And he gets a lot of gear and fields Money’s FG kicks in practice.

Wild game and it is the best even with Goodell as commissioner, best Playoffs I have ever witnessed in my life and that isn't
just because my favorite team has made the Superbowl. Anything can happen even if you try to corrupt it forever like a few 
teams have always tried in all sports. We aren't handed anything, we are going to take it.

It is funny, they think they can control this shit. Ain't happenin'.

Ha ha no problem. Tried to post a pic of him in the locker room holding the trophy but I guess the pic is too big.

No, dude is our good luck charm, man.  He was in Nashville last week and in KC today, and he'll be at the SB in two weeks!  This is a lock!

Thought times were weird before, but I like.
