People forget that in 2009 it was still popular to point out that the Bengals only had ONE winning season in the last 18 years. The team had gone gotten worse every year since '05 and only won 4 games in '08. It seemed like things were right back to the '90's.
Every team has fans who are optimistic before the season starts. But even a lot of the Bengal homers could not help but feel that '09 was going to be a disappointment after losing opening day like that.
It is easy to believe in curses when you have gone almost 2 decades with only one winning season.
