You say you're excited about the season and go on to say we likely won't make the playoffs. Not busting your balls or anything, but I just struggle to get very excited unless I think we have a real contender. Like Wyche, I'm excited about the draft and I think the defense will be fine.
It's the offense that has serious question marks (being kind there). I can't get excited about Ogbuehi and Jake Fisher as bookend tackles. Hill/Gio does nothing for me at this point. Eifert is great but is constantly hurt. AJ Green has had his fair share of injuries now. The offense looks like Andy Dalton, glue and duct tape.
Our FA period was predictably boring and we came out losers again. We desperately need a home run draft. Oh...and Marvin Lewis and Paul Alexander are still there. So even if we go 11-5, we all know what will follow. Sorry to sound so jaded, but it is what it is.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
