It's entirely possible that the Bengals could do everything right and still never win the title. If that's your attitude, you might consider finding a different hobby that isn't guaranteed by design to make you miserable in any situation short of a dynasty.
Yes, that was Drew Brees, by the way. The guy that won a Super Bowl with New Orleans to pull them out of an extremely long period of ineptitude worse than Cincinnati's.
Dial back the rage boner dude.
Stats are great but as a fan I don't think there is anything wrong with taking the attitude that I want to see the team I've put years of my life supporting be successful.
Did anyone ask for a dynasty?
I have seen the Reds win 1 World Series in my life that I was old enough to remember and enjoy. I live in Connecticut where anything short of that is a failure for the Yankee fans. Fan here think they deserve to win every single year. Forget all the fake Pats fans I deal with that didn't even know the team existed prior to that first one over the Rams.
I just sit there and think how awesome it was to remember those moments when the Reds one and Im happy with that.
Thats all I want and at this point I'd be happy with a playoff win. I'll never forgive Lewis Billups because thats the type of thing I remember. Not who many TDs Carson Plamer or Eaison threw in a given year.
Don't tell me how to 'fan'.
EDIT: the Saints went 7-9 that season so yeah, who cares
