Can history repeat itself?

Palmer was also injured because of a horrible offensive line.

It would be incredible if we could win some games just because, yes, it might hurt our draft position, but I'd rather see us put up some Ws and not be the complete joke of the NFL.

I also have Chase in fantasy and, if he's putting up big games, it helps me and also has to help the team.

Realistically, though, losing more would definitely help us because of the draft.

It's also a dangerous mindset to have a locker room that gets used to losing, but I think Burrow would rally the team in the offseason and get the mindset back to where it needs to be.
