And this match up with the Saints does not bode well in any scenario for the Bengals. Our best offensive weapon is AJ Green, period. Without him defenses can play straight up. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see this. Just pure common sense, or keeping it "real" if you will.
How does this offense score enough points to beat the Saints when our defense is like a sieve? Boyd, Erickson, Ross, Malone, Core, Tate, Uzomah? C'mon man. I like most of these players but at best we score 24 if all have great days. The Saints might score that much by the 2nd quarter!
Those are the words that are coming out of your mouth.
Unfortunately it's being heard as a negative defeatist mentality.
"Being a realist" is perceived as wallowing in sorrow.
Can the Bengals beat the Saints?
Yes there's always luck and a snowball's chance in hell.
The Bills have 3 passing TDs in the whole season but managed beating the Vikings.
I honestly didn't think the Bills could beat another NFL team going into the season.
To get to the point.
People don't like someone(you)snuffing out hope.
Call it "whining, squealing, whimpy" or whatever.
That's what they're really getting at.
