I don't think many here deny the fact that the Bengals have a shot to get into the playoffs. It's:
1. Do we even deserve to be there?
2. Can we actually compete against the elite teams and make a run?
It's not that great to get into the playoffs if you know what's coming next.
As for what I'd need to see..
1. Bengals offense would have to drop 30-40 each game, with Ross getting 1-2 TDs each game, while showing off creative ways to get him the ball, and that spectacular 40 speed we were sold on.
2. One of Dalton's TDs would need to be a 50 yard missile that just slices through the air with such precision and velocity that you would've thought we had Rodgers.
3. Defense would need to have more 3 and outs than TDs given up.
4. Defense would have to get 3-5 sacks against the Ravens on Sunday. Mobile QB with a good O-line coming up.
5. Linebackers and safeties would need to show the ability to run sideline to sideline with great speed, and make things hard on TEs and RBs.
6. Seriously defense, wtf. Get your **** together.
Bonus Points:
1. Mike Brown would have to come out before the game on Sunday IN Baltimore and grab a microphone, stare that ugly purple sea of losers in the crowd and say, "IM TIRED OF THIS ****! SCREW YOU, WE ARE GOING TO WRECK YOUR TEAM TODAY AND WE ARE GOING TO THE SB!"
2. And then, like a WWE Promo, the jumbotron would suddenly show Marvin Lewis inside the locker room, in the Austin 3:16 outfit with a baseball bat in his hand. He'd stare at the camera with the look of a mad man for 10 seconds, and then go to the nearest fire alarm and proceed to destroy that thing with the same intensity that Negan did in that season finale of The Walking Dead.
