I used to get excited for every game and be 100% emotionally invested. I still flip out sometimes because I’m a defensive guy and watching this pathetic defense enrages me. But overall I feel as the years have gone on I’ve gotten less emotionally invested in this team mainly due to Marvin Lewis fatigue. The team just has a staleness to it and you could predict the outcome when we play Pittsburgh or in prime time and so on. That 2015 playoff game really took a lot out of me as a fan. I miss that bad ass Zimmer defense the team had more of an edge and likability to them when he was around. I’ll never forget the game after his wife passed vs. the Ravens where we only gave up 7 points. You could just feel the emotions of the players playing there hearts out for their coach , every player rallying to the football and playing with a controled agression it was a thing of beauty
