The bye week falls after Week Five and if the Front Office wants to make another big coaching move, the bye week is the perfect time to do so. If the Bengals go 0-5 I can see this happening especially given Mike Brown's disappointment detailed in another thread.
Here's my question: Should we root for the Browns and the Bills in hope Cincinnati starts out 0-5 and it might spell the end of the road for some of the Bengals' inept coaches?
Such a move might tank the season even more than it has been already tanked but it's not too soon to prepare for 2018.
Or should we root for Cincinnati to win both games, climb to 2-3, and hope for more wins during the current season even if it means keeping inept coaches on staff?
I'll be honest: I'm torn.
You can root for Cleveland this week if you want. I'm rooting for The Bengals. I am NOT looking at the draft in September. I know Bengals Fans fell into that losing mode under Mike Brown after Paul Brown died, but I refuse to. Plus I hate to point it out again but Mike has less scouts than any NFL team so our drafts are not that great anyway. How did you like us drafting the kicker too high and cutting him before he ever plays a game, and in week 3 he kicks game winning 61 yard field goal for another team. Just one of the many reasons I'm not looking ahead to the draft by Mike Brown in September. I'm rooting for Bengals to WIN this weekend.
