Imagine the true potential of this team if you add even half the amount of explosive plays we saw in weeks 1-7. I think when you remove that to the extent we've seen in this half of the season, it takes us from being a Super Bowl caliber squad, to a fringe playoff team.
I heard this a few weeks ago, so it may not be true anymore. It's certainly not after that Denver game... But the Bengals were still averaging the same amount of points per possession that they were weeks one through seven. I'm almost positive I heard that in the weeks after the bye. I definitely see what you're getting at though.
