I think I know what might be really hindering this franchise. ( I might be wrong)

You do realize how miserable every other fanbase is, right?  I live in Steeler country and every time they lose 2 in a row people call into the sports shows and claim that Tomlin only has his job because the Rooney family won't fire a black HC, and blah blah blah.  Eagles fans are the most vile people on earth who have spent almost all of the past 40 years flipping off their team.  Hell, if any NFL fanbase had their wish there would probably be 30 new QBs every season.

I could go on.  If anything, Bengals fans are pretty mellow because things just haven't changed much in these parts.
