Good things are coming."  I'm confident of that.

No! If a QB can't win in the playoffs his first few years in the league he's garbage! Even if he doesn't have that many offensive weapons! Or if a team just has bad luck like against the Chargers!

Dalton has done great for what he has had. The Bengals have had a great defense his first 3 years, but his first two he had bad weapons. His 3rd year he had good receivers, but he had a bad run game. His 4th year he had no receivers, but a good run game. This is his first year that he has a legit offense around him. The defense is playing decent, and would be a TON better if we had a legit LB that can stop the run. If Burfict can come back 80-90% by the Steelers game we will only have 3-4 losses this year, and make a great post season run. We might even be able to win it all. Honestly right now I think we are the best team in the NFL.
