I will also elaborate on my "broke my spirit" feeling.  I will always be a Bengals fan.  I will always want them to win.  I never want to see them lose, even for better draft position.  I am a fierce competitor in sports, games, etc.  The one and only time I ever wanted to see a loss was the Miami game to get Burrow if I am remembering that correctly.  I will still watch every game, I will still put on my jersey, I will still make some kind of dip for the game.  It's that I just don't feel any excitement really.  Hopefully it comes back next year, but after that Patriots game it just disappeared this year.   

The sudden swing from 31 years of being a laughing stock and losing in new and horrific ways to the insane excitement and hope after getting Burrow, Chase, Higgins, etc and almost winning a SB and then barely missing again the next year to almost instantly back to horrific crap again the last 2 years was just too much for my brain to overcome.  Best I can describe it is that I went numb.  Just unwilling to go through the excitement/hope and then ultimate outcome of losing again.  A subconscious mental defense mechanism. I don't know.  I just sit and watch pretty much emotionless expecting some disaster.  

I used to be crazy insane.  Jumping all around every touchdown, screaming, yelling, completely full of excitement and hope.  It's just gone man and it sucks.  I watch no other sports.  And even if I did it would be the Reds and well....................they are not going to help the lack of excitement and numbness.  Ha ha!   I am not saying it makes my life sad.  I am a very happy person, but when it comes to Bengals football I am just numb now. 

Oh well.  Hopefully the FO does make some changes that give me and others hope and next year this is just a distant bad memory as we destroy everyone on the way to the SB.  

Nice post man. Guess I am not there yet, still am excited to watch my Bengals even now. Just expecting poor Defense now and no turnaround.

The time for the Defense to turn it around was against the stealers after the bye. Had a week and a half for Lou to get the Defense ready for that
game and it was a complete embarrassment. I will be really excited once the season is over and we start firing Lou and whoever else and talking 
about who we can bring in to resurrect this Defense. Just sucks later in the season already looking forward to the Offseason as far as the Bengals 
goes, but I am still excited to watch the Playoffs and hopefully we don't have to see those Chiefs get the 3 peat.

Go Bills and go Lions in the NFC.
