1. Need to put 2 solid games in a row with a win to really feel the momentum
2. Loss to me pretty much puts us on life support for division
2. We can't afford to go 0-4 in conference we will be like 10th in playoff hunt which is farther behind than last year at this time.

Losing those first three games against AFC opponents — including two division games — is looking worse. The Bengals need to go on a world-beating winning streak to make the playoffs at all. Cincinnati could end up 10-7 or 11-6 and completely miss the postseason.

Honestly I thought Cleveland would burn out but sadly their play is improving. I liked it better when it took the Browns three years to win five games. The Bengals have four games left against the AFC North and now we have to win all of them.

While you have Mahomes, Allen and Lawrence with piss poor divisions. Cake walk to the playoffs every year.  (Yes I know Bills isn't a sure thing this season but Dolphins seem to be a mirage)
