Have some fans who look at this and see the history of the team and history of the coaching staff and see no issue with the report.

Then have the other side that are optimistic about the players brought in the past few seasons and find the report to be inaccurate or lazy.

When I posted it, I didn't give any opinion of my own on the article, really was just curious to see how it would play out. It was honestly very close to what I expected, a split between the so-called "homers" who want to believe and the so-called "downers" who want the team to prove it before they buy in.

Neither side is wrong, just nice to see the name calling targeted at a reporter and not other posters who are fellow fans.

The reporter is just doing his job.  When we are good again people will talk about us, not the 4 win teams. 

Yes the Bengals aren't media favorites now, but I don't see anyone here saying the Jets or Texans are going to give the doubters a big middle finger and make the playoffs.  We are fine with dismissing weak teams as long as they aren't the Bengals.
