All of the injuries that the Bengals have had this year is a reasonable excuse and has impacted the team.  Losing Eifert hurt. This team is a shell of itself compared to the start of the season.  But the team did not adequately address the glaring issues of the O-Line and the linebacker position.  Most fans on this forum had questions and concerns regarding the O-Line for sure.  But I did not anticipate how poorly the defense would play under Austin.  Austin was Marvin's guy.  Austin was a disaster.   

Even if the team performed poorly at the start of the season with a healthy roster I still do not believe it would change Mike Browns approach.  He is the owner/GM and has been a disaster since he took over in the 1990's but it is what it is.  

From Mike Brown's perspective, injuries provides a rational logical excuse for another losing season.  If that doesn't work Brown will argue that 31 other teams in the NFL fail to obtain the top goal of winning the Super Bowl.  It will not end until Mike Brown moves on.
