We lost 3 out of the 4 national tv games which was pretty typical of the Bengals and can't be considered an improvement. We only needed to win one more game to get a bye (which at the time was meaning a good chance to get Dalton back), and we choked under pressure, which again is typical. And we lost to playoff teams late in the season, which again is typical. So you can't say it was anything more than an average season. Even with the improvement of Dalton.
Overall after the amazing start, the team crashed and burned. Even with honorable backup qb play.
First you say first 8 games were average, then you call that start amazing make up your mind....
