I'm not saying that the Bengals would have been exactly the same, but last year's Bengals team reminds me a lot of this year's Falcons. I truly believe that the Bengals would have gotten that first round bye had Dalton not gotten hurt.
Yep...and the Falcons changed coaches...and BAM! they got over the hump.
It's tough with the Bengals because we had the talent to win playoff games...we even had the lead last year against the Steelers late and just hard to run out the clock and Hill fumbled. The Bengals just don't have the mental toughness to win big games.
Thus a new HC hopefully could instill that.
