Losing Close Games is a Bad Indicator

I get that it may not have felt like a close game, but anyone saying it was NOT a close game is either an idiot or has an agenda.

It was a close game because both offenses were terrible most of the game.
Most people feel that this offense should not be putting up only 3 points until 6 minutes in the 4th quarter when the team ends up being down by 17.

This game was terrible to watch. I got bored with the lack of offense happening. I don't just mean scoring.
Bengals had 276 total yards of offense, only 207 passing yards. 42 of which came on one play. So out of the other 18 completions, only 165 yards.


Back to the point of the thread though, good teams find ways to win close games often.
Taylor has had really bad success at doing that in his tenure.
We'll see if he's able to change his stars by the end of the season.
If not, this will be a rough season again, I think.
