Which team do you think they play/coach for?

The truth is that the Bengals (and their fans) are in a very unique situation. Lance is an idiot if he doesn't understand why there's an undercurrent of negativity surrounding the Bengals right now.

He can say that he's never seen a fan base act this way over a winning team, but what other winning teams have gone 25 years without a playoff win? How many have gone 0-6 in the playoffs while doing so well in regular season?

The answer is none. The Bengals are the only team in NFL history to deal with these circumstances. So who is Lance (or anyone) to judge the fans on how they react to such unprecedented circumstances?

It is incredibly frustrating as a fan to watch a team show so much promise every year, only to completely flop in epic fashion each January. Anyone who doesn't understand that just doesn't WANT to understand.

I'd give you a thousand rep points if I could.

Lance calling the Bengals a "winning" team glosses over the facts a bit to support his argument.  And like you say later on it's the lack of progression that makes it so hard to swallow !

Add in the fact that stretch Armstrong's and rubik's cubes were still lying around in kids rooms the last time this team won a playoff game. If he can't understand the frustration ??

Ever hear a player at the seasons start say "we're planning on having a good season, coming in a couple games over .500 and getting smoked in the playoffs again. We'll hang our hat on that and just be happy" ?

Shove that crud where the sun........ well you know.
