Lose a ton of money and maybe another city will buy franchise and move it from Cincinnati to states away.
There are many threads on here today making excuses for why we will lose to Steelers this Sunday and this season. The NFL is unfair to Burfict. The Refs let Steelers get away with everything and a different set of rules for them. Many threads with built in EXCUSES for losing. Excuses are the crutch of losers. You can be all ready to lose when you have already made your excuse crutches. Of course Bengals haven't played Steelers this season and therefore haven't lost yet, but fans already have the excuse crutches for losing lined up all over this web site.
So why even play the rest of the season since all the experts have us losing ?......Then again, the experts haven't been very right about anything NFL this year or in years past.....So since the experts are wrong more than right.....Maybe Bengals should go ahead and play the rest of the season. The game is not played on paper or a computer and is played on the field. Often what happens on the field is different from what gamblers or computer slide ruler geeks predict.
Read more carefully...
I said the Bengals still had a "slim chance" at winning the Division or that they could possibly meet the Steelers in the Playoffs as a Wildcard with a "do or die" shot to take them down then.
Bengals still have a shot at both the Division or a Wildcard but the Steeler's win versus the Chiefs coupled with them getting to play the Packers without Aaron Rodgers slims the Bengals chances.
I'm OK with them playing out the rest of the games.
