Just like last year, when they thought bringing Marvin back wouldn't have an impact on fan investment, they will be wrong.
The Bengals could've signed any free agent that was out there and people weren't going to buy tickets. The Bengals could draft any player in this draft in people won't by tickets. They'd be smart to realize that. People will still watch on TV, though. Win and they'll come back, but until they do nothing will matter.
I seem to recall the first three home games of the year being sell outs last year, and I seem to recall there being a ton of Bengals fan in Indy as well. It wasn't Marvin that kept them away, it was the losing.
