You keep taking one or two examples that don't even fit and making a point that's not really a point. The Bengals have not won a playoff game in 26 years. That's "reality". That's what most Bengals fans base the negativity on, and it doesn't negate the "reality" of the situation.
I don't really care to have a discussion about this again because we've already had several. The most salient point is, past results don't predict future performance. This team can make the playoffs and win a playoff game or more. If they continue to improve in some areas and stay healthy, they're able to contend for the SB.
That doesn't make "realists" more negative or less positive. They can be both. That's how reality works.
Thank you!
What RFaulk is saying is he has a pessimistic view based on realisim. I'm the opposite I believe in any given Sunday and don't believe past seasons effect the outcome of a new season which is an optimistic view based in realisim.
