RIP Burrow Era

I really hope I am wrong, and I am not trying to be purposely negative, but I truly believe our window has closed and we are going back to .500 or less seasons.

We lost a lot of talent that has not been replaced.  Burrow has been physically abused and his wrist is a huge question mark that is obviously bothering him still.  That alone could be the end of Burrow's career.  Our coaching, whether it is scheme or getting players to play good football is very lacking.

You have Higgins with what seems like a constant hammy injury and Chase who is more concerned with getting a penny more than Jefferson cause feelz rather than focusing on playing a great game and prepping with the team.  The o-line is below average to maybe barely average.  Our D cannot stop a high school team run game.

Again, not trying to be negative, just trying to be realistic.  I have absolutely no reason to believe that in 6 days we are magically going to transform into some world beater team and go into Arrowhead and beat Mahomes and the Chiefs.  I expect an absolute beatdown of the Bengals.  We are a shell of our 2 great seasons.  We had our chance; the window is closed.  It just feels so much like we are back to Andy Dalton like times.  

Mahomes is far superior to Burrow at this point.  Mahomes seems like this funny, down to earth carefree dude who just wants to have fun and win football games.  Burrow is like some flamboyant pretty boy jet setting off to do fashion shows and see what kind of reactions he can get from crazy outfits.  He dumps his longtime girlfriend for some hot influencer while Mahomes quietly stays with his longtime high school sweetheart and starts a family.  As of right now burrow is not even remotely close to someone like Mahomes and our coaching staff is JV compared to a team like the Chiefs, not to mention MB still meddling.  We do have some cool social media and hype videos though to trick the fans yet again.  The Bengals org is Lucy and all of us fans are Charlie Brown.  Sad.

Anyway.  Feel free to rip me apart, but that's what I honestly think.  I REALLY, REALLY hope I am wrong.  I truly hope we roll into KC and just dismantle the Chiefs and everything looks bright again in Bengal land.  Unfortunately, what is it they say, hope is not a plan.

Who-Dey!

Completely agree with your post. Watching this team play, is like watching a bunch of guys pretending to be athletics playing weekend football. They are not even close to looking like a professional football team. I said that all preseason, that every team looked better and more prepared for the season to start.
