Against Tanking

(11-20-2023, 10:26 AM)kevin Wrote: I thought Bengals making play-offs 5 years in a row was pretty good, considering Bengals had only went play-offs 2 years in a row once in 1981 and 1982.  The worst era of Bengals was from 1991 to 2004 of no play-offs at all.  I learned finishing last and only looking forward to draft day is football at it's worst.  The huge problem I discovered in 1990's Bengals is that when a team is that bad, one top draft pick is not going to turn around such a mess of a team. Bengals had many top picks in 1990's to around 2001, and what good did it do them, they still stunk.  Tanking for The Draft is Over Rated. 1990's Bengals proved losing is not a path to victory. 

Comparing these Bengals to the Bengals of the 90's or 2010's is apples and oranges. The teams in the 90s were terrible. The teams in the 2010's had Andy Dalton, not Joe Burrow. This team is, or at least should be, in win now mode. A higher draft pick is more likely to help the team in the immediate future. 

I'll never root for the Bengals to lose and I'd never want them to intentionally lose games. It's just my position that the rest of this season is pretty inconsequential, so if they do end up losing it's kind of whatever.
