Indirect Motivation

(02-18-2019, 02:11 PM)Nately120 Wrote: Meh, the last two teams to win the SB were both full of the "nobody believes in us" narrative.  You can make a case for every NFL team being motivated by criticism and people putting them down.  Even the team that wins it all believes that everyone is against them and no one believes in them, so we might need to come up with a new way to convince our players to be better.

Also, how many OCs turned us down before we got Brian Callahan?  If he was our first choice and he enthusiastically took the job does that mean the offense is going to get complacent because they didn't get overlooked?

OPTIMISTIC BENGALS FANS:
Bengals get the first OC they shoot for:
Wow, look at that!  Our offense is so talented and in demand!  They're gonna be so motivated!  Look out, NFL!

Bengals get the 27th DC they shoot for:
Wow, look at that!  Our defense is going to be so motivated that so many DCs didn't want to be here.  Look out, NFL!

Eternal optimism is great except when it doesn't pan out and turns into eternal pessimism which is one thing every Bengals fan is eternally familiar with..
