Two areas to cheer up us committed fans, who have been here, at least, since MB has owned them, and refuse to bandwagon!
1. Next week the Bengals have a chance to break a record since Brown has had control, and that is to go to Texas and win 2 and tie 1 'big stage' games in a single season!!
2. For us Bengal fans, who refuse to abandon the team and weathered the 90s, it's really not all that bad.
Since Lewis came on board his two worst seasons, one 4-11-1 and the other 4-12, were followed up with seasons with winning records and playoff appearances!!
Is it just a one year dip?
They’re asking the same question in Carolina and Arizona. The two teams that met in the NFC Championship Game last year are a combined 10-16-1 this year.
“I think it’s just life in the NFL,” former Bengals quarterback Boomer Esiason told me this week.

Since 2001 there has only been one team that has not had a .500 or below season record.
No surprise that it's the New England Patriots.
