They were 8-0, but then went 4-5 including the play-offs.  4-5 is a pretty lousy finish that shows this team has problems it needs to fix.  Much work needs done in the off season. Much work needs done in preaseason.  Bengals are far away from a trip to Super Bowl right now. There is much room for improvement after 4-5 finish.  Bengals beat themselves the last 20 seconds in play-off game, but that is no excuse, it just means they are losers. Being losers has to change. All the excuses in the world doesn't change the fact that they are losers. Only when they win in the play-offs will that change. No play-off wins since 1990 season is a long time of being losers.

This team is ready.. I agree with ESPN.. taking Denver to the cusp with their backup QB at Denver shows this team can play .. going 12-4 in regular season shows the depth and talent this team has.  It is a 16 game season.. not a 9 game season.. look how Denver finished the year very similar to us and they won the Super Bowl... 

What I saw out of a healthy Dalton has me positive about next year... BRING ON 2016 SEASON.. WHO DEY
