Hell, THIS team doesn't even have that many guys left who were actually the ones to win those playoff games in 2022.....
Only 4 of the starting 11 that year on offense are still starting (Burrow, Chase, Tee, Karras).
Only 4 of the starting 11 that year on defense are still starting (Hill, Hendrickson, Wilson, CTB).
That's only 8 of the 22 guys and that's assuming Hendrickson starts for us this year. Without it that's less than 1/3rd left.
We've missed the playoffs two straight years now. 2022 was 3 years ago. The period of success (2021-2022) has already been matched in length by the following period of missing the playoffs (2023-2024).
Well since we were playing with the backup QB for the back end of the schedule in 2023, and Burrow started the season still recovering from his wrist injury in 2024, it doesn't bother me. But since we're living in the past, yeah, 30 years ago when I was 35...... let's go back to that. I'd like to have my Camaro back, and a back that is not screwed up.
