I don't generally find teams who lose often to be entertaining, so if I get the feeling that a team is not going to be able to realistically push for a playoff spot, I typically stop investing time and money into watching them for that season.
Only problem is...without football, what is there to do in the fall/winter?
I sit here all spring and summer and read about people wanting to hurry up and get the season started and i'm like **** that, i've spent a lot of time putting a pool and bigass deck in my back yard for a nice little at home getaway. I want the damn warm/hot weather to draaaaaaaag on.
I can accept it being over right now, because it means football season is starting. Without the Bengals, i'd have to try rooting for some other team but the enjoyment (for me) just wouldn't be the same.
