It is like being a parent and your adult kid does something you do not agree with and believe it to be detrimental to their future.
Do you A… say I love you no matter what and just stay your course and lifes lessons will guide you ?
or
Do you B … offer advice on what you believe will help them along their path in life while explaining you still love them no matter what but believe this other route to be better for their future ?
I think the B is the more loving parent even though they had to disagree with their adult child.
Believe it to be the same with fans and the ones that toe the company line are wrong. No matter the team.
But still love them too. As well as all Bengals fans who have stuck it out through the trying times we have faced. The weak are not around anymore and all cope differently.
Rock On Bengals fans !

Yep. This team has been living off the 2010 and 2011 drafts for a long time. We haven't been nearly as fortunate since, and MB did not try to capitalize by hiring a new HC or taking some real swings in FA.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
