You put this loss on 2 backups and think we wont be back? We looked like the best team in the AFC, knowing if we had our oline we win this game going away.
I'm so shocked at the lack of NFL intelligence by so many, the window isnt closing. Brady won with several different lineups... we can as well.

Just be happy we didn't have to witness them getting blown out in the superbowl...again.

that will be the chiefs platter this year, it will sting a little less I guess
RE: It's time to accept.... - Tony - 01-30-2023
It's still better than totally sucking, Being here since 1988 it's hard seeing a superbowl win.. It's just always something with this organization... I really think Zac, Mixon and some of the players really pissed Goodell.off with their comments... It's was pretty evident..

True.. No way this team even competes with the Eagles. Burrow would've got destroyed...
RE: It's time to accept.... - grampahol - 01-30-2023
What I'll never accept is those guys will get paid millions every year they play football and most of us will never even sniff that first million in our entire lives.. They can be complete jerks and blow off fans, but you tell a customer to piss off and you're unemployed..
Go figure, huh?

This club has 1, maybe 2 more years to do it. What today proved is that you have to take every game in the regular season seriously. Having the 1 seed almost guarantees you the Super Bowl. Having to play the CCG on the road is extremely difficult. We’re only going to see another Super Bowl by having the best record in the AFC.
RE: It's time to accept.... - THE PISTONS - 01-30-2023
You just don't make it to the SB in sports every year. Marino made it once.
I think fans are spoiled and thought that we'd be there every year.
Burrow will win a couple in his career.

Teams make it with a highly paid qb. It will be tougher though.

The Marino example is what has a lot of people anxious. Because we may never make it back there. If this club had a Lombardi in its trophy case already the feeling would be different.

I'm not sure but I feel like the team that the Bengals just lost too has one of those super highly paid QBs.
If KC can do it, why does everyone doubt the Bengals? Yes, the front office will have to make choices that people don't like such as not being able to keep both Higgins and Chase. There will be cap casualties but as long as the team invests in protection for Burrow and drafts well to keep new talent coming in they will be fine.

Eh. The NFL is competitive. Reality is, we're not better than the Chiefs. They outplay us most of the game, then we play crazy at the end to win. That didn't happen today.
Honestly, the playcalling on offense was mediocre.

Elway.
As long as Burrow is this team’s QB we’re a threat to win the Super Bowl every year as far as I’m concerned.

A bit off topic, but I'm young enough that I can still see Burrow win one before his career is over. Each passing year, I think about my dad getting another year older and not seeing a Bengals Super Bowl victory.
The idiom applies, the window is still open.

We are very elite, and we are very much an AFC front runner again next year.
We’d have won in OT. The punt return was a killer then PF. Tough to overcome. Many People on here are horribly unrealistic. KC has been to the AFC Championship 5 years in a row. They’ve got good coaches. Hard to overcome 3 reserve OL.

My kids feel the same way. I've been a fan since 1968, so you can get an idea of how old I am. My kids are hoping that I live long enough to see a Bengals Super Bowl. I've seen numerous Brady Super Bowl wins and numerous Steeler and Cowboys wins and two Kansas City wins. As a Bengals fan, I've seen three heart-wrenching, close Super Bowl losses and now this close AFCCC game loss. Never saw anything other than a loss in the last game of the season the Bengals made the playoffs.

I accept no such thing.
RE: It's time to accept.... - Destro - 01-30-2023
You got a year to live because the Bengals win the Super Bowl next year.
Maybe travel or swim with dolphins or something.

As long as Burrow is back there and Brown doesn't go on the cheap trying to save a dollar and he adds/replaces with quality then the Bengals should be contenders for years to come. Of course that doesn't guarantee a SB win or even a SB appearance, but they should at least be in the mix. AFC North is going to be an extremely tough division though
