The difference between Cincinnati and Pittsburgh in a nutshell is one franchise pulls out all the stops to win,
while the other pulls out all the stops to increase profitability.

Yeah much easier to ein with a good defense and sucky offense than the other way around.  The Bungles and Pitt, this year, are two prime examples of that

Doesn’t matter. This is the 90s Bengals. We’re in for another decade of suck.

Someone tough who focuses on defense and physicality because they are soft.  Let Tee go and focus on OL/DL only.  Get tougher and you will still be good enough at the skill positions.

Will never happen but the guy to try do this is available

Taylor and Lou will be gone

Are you really this much of a goof, or just a lousy troll?

He hasn’t played the full year. Thought you knew that but you having a rough afternoon.

Pitt 500 plus yards Lou must go

Coming from a N. Harris fantasy owner. That's one thing that makes me scratch my head with them. Harris is a early-ish whistle away from scoring on 1st down and you don't just line up and do it again? I would say I'm glad we didn't give up 50 but that could be just a pick six away.

Score here recover the inside kick score a TD as time expires.

Believe

I guess that if you reflect back to the shock of the opening day loss to the Patriots, when people were asking if the Bengals were "really that bad"? The answer would be yes, we really are that bad.

Doesn't matter while air is still circulating in lawyer browns lungs...he will ALWAYS
place profit and his interests above winning - always has, always will.

City should have let his pruned ass walk.

First thing they'll have to do is meet privately with Burrow, Chase, Tee and Trey. Convince them that the ownership will fix the team THIS offseason no matter what it takes. And then go out and get a Vrabel or whoever is needed to change the mindset of the team.

Pittsburgh's scouts are vastly superior.  Wilson, not even starting for Pitt, plays with more fire than any starter on Cinci's defense save TH.

When Chase only has 30 yards the Bengals are typically not going to win. Taylor let Pittsburgh take him away.
