Thye may suck in 2022, but right now they are way ahead of the Bengals in regards to satisfying the fans.
They had an embarrassing playoff series vs Atlanta in a freak COVID season and are coming off on an epic meltdown this year. Throw in the fact that fans just watched them go through a legit sell-off/rebuild from 2014-2019 and you've got a fan base that's low on patience. Ownership has shown that all a rebuild gets them is about 2 years of low-end success, followed by another tear-down. Not exactly a team people will want to pay to watch while they try to get their shit together again.
