He’s at the top of everyone’s list. No one who has other options is dumb enough to come here.

I can't create new posts or even reply over in Jungle Noise.
Anyone know who I need to contact about the issue?

Likewise, and I assume the forum is still locked for all posters as it is during the game time. 

Nothing is getting fixed this year. All we have to hope for is no significant injuries that will linger into next year at this point. We are staring at 4-13 and a top 5 pick. The draft is the focus here on out.

Yes, the Jungle Noise forum is still locked from game time.  I don't have the ability to lock or unlock forums so we'll have to wait for Holic or someone with else with that ability to unlock it.

Chase has to be relieved that he didn't sign any new contract with this team. He probably already told Burrow it was fun for a short time but it's time for us to split up.
And Burrow has to be sorry he DID sign that big contract here. It's never going to happen for them in Cincy.

I said in preseason that the Bengals would go as far as the defense can carry them. I didn’t know how right I was.

Fire him into the sun.

Well what is the answer then? Are we to expect another slow start next season like all others? Are we to expect the defense to keep getting worse somehow? And the offense not being able to close out games? Are they ok with a kicker that can't be relied upon anymore? 

If this is Taylor's way of telling the fanbase don't expect changes in the offseason with how they do things, then the Bengals fanbase is about to be cooked for years to come.

Tim, you and I were the 2 that said they would be lucky to win 9 or 10 games this year 2 months ago after some here were saying this is a 12-14 win team and guys ridiculed us, remember?

I hear you, and we caught lot of slack over that.
I did say 8-9 and any best 9-8, that seems like a pipe dream now.

The interior of the OL, their kicker, a couple horrendous officiated calls/no calls and ZT play-calling has let this team down just as much. Their interior OL is as bad as I've seen in the NFL. They're 4-5 plays away (including at least 2 kicks)  from having 4 more wins so we're not having this kind of discussion as in-depth as we are. D played their arses off the last 30 minutes of the game.

That’s the problem, they only showed up for the 2nd half, minus last 45 seconds. That’s a trend.

They are 0-6 against teams in the playoffs, giving up 35 points a game.  There is no silver lining.  They have lost every close game. Good teams win those and bad teams lose those.

Like Hey we want to disappoint you twice, but you have to stay up late too if we do!

Much as I love limiting myself to 2 hours sleep, I'm not sure these Bengals are worth it!

Still locked for everyone.  Haven't opened it up since locked for the game. 

This team's problem starts at the very top..the Front Office and they will not change or adapt to today's NFL. The same problems keep showing up every game, no run game, no QB protection, no defense, no offensive clever scheming, an offensive line that continues to get beat and who knows what has happened to McPherson. And this FO refuses to make changes to correct any of these problems whether it's players, coaches, planning, drafting and whatever else.

I don't have a problem with Zac's play calling on offense. Went for it on 4th downs and successfully. Evan makes either of those highly makeable kicks and its yet another 30 point game. And against a very stingy defense.

It is the pitiful defense. Don't know Zac's responsibility in that area, but as head coach, it seems he bears responsibility for the defense also.

Worst part is rhe Bengals will still go 8-9 or 7-10 and pick somewhere around 15 to 18.
