My hope was the changes to the organization would manifest itself into a perennial winning team. They had money left over in the cap to use for Bell or Perrine but too cheap to pay their worth. They still have the smallest scouting staff and front office. It is mind numbing how inept the Brown family is since they cannot get it right. There is no excuse not able to win when your franchise QB goes down considering the claims of a cultural change. Nothing has changed! We still cheer for a team owned by a family who don’t want to do the things that other winning organizations do to win. Don’t tell me they own a small market team and can’t. I will tell all of you to look at Pissburgh and they always have a winning team. This is miserable as a fan. Nothing has changed, the past two years was an aberration

The Steelers are just a much better run organization than the Bengals who hold themselves to much higher football standards than the Bengals. The Bengals need to take a hard look in the mirror if they truly want to be a championship contender. But unfortunately I don't think they're football standards are high enough for that.
I remember Mike Brown having a speech after we made the Superbowl that any other of the 31 teams could be in there in shoes. I thought at the time it was a statement showing humility. But now I wonder if he was looking at it like it was more luck that we were in that situation. Which there is a bit of luck to get there but I would rather the focus be on the fact that we made alot of smart FA moves and had Burrow with good offensive weapons around him. This disconnect is concerning because you want to hold yourselves to high football standards and be doing as much as you can to improve your team. Not counting on luck to get the job done.
