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.

Ya, I agree.  If I see the FO really make an effort to move in a positive direction this offseason I am sure my excitement and hope will be back for next year.  That's the thing.  It's not really the losing per se that frustrates me so much, it's the lack of effort to correct the problems at the highest level that makes me lose hope and feel so numb.  

As far as the Chiefs go, lol, as soon as I heard about Kelce and Swift I am pretty sure I posted on here that they were winning the SB and they did.  No way the NFL was going to pass up Swift's 100M followers, many millions of whom could potentially be new NFL fans.  $$$$$   The NFL would also love nothing more than Mahomes, Reid, Kelce, etc. to 3peat.  I said they are going to 3peat during the offseason.  They are the face of the NFL right now.  Look at the calls they get.  Plus it would continue to keep all those Swifties engaged in the NFL for another season and potentially locking them in as fans.  $$$$.  Honestly, as much as I hate to admit it, Mahomes and reid seem like pretty cool dudes.  I am kind of a goofy funny guy like they are in the commercials so I can relate.  I can't stand Brittany or Mahomes brother, but notice how they have disappeared for the most part.  Just for the record I do not want to see a 3peat.

I totally agree on the Bills and Lions.  Those are the 2 teams I would want to see win.  I have lived in Bills Country now for the last 23 years.  ALL my friends are diehard Bills fans.  I also really like Dan Campbell and the Lions deserve some success just as much as we do.

And now that I type that maybe that's why it sucks so bad for me.  I don't live in Cincy anymore.  I have no Bengals fans to watch any games with or talk to about the Bengals.  I am basically on an island with my Bengals fandom.  It's probably why I rant so much here because this is literally my only outlet to talk about Bengals to other fans.
