Feel bad for Joe Mixon? Pfft.

I have a hard time considering the NFL a game since the average American would likely be in the hospital or the morgue after playing it for a few seconds.  Then again, you may have implemented some more hardcore house-rules than we did when you played Monopoly growing up.

I realize Marvin spent his entire HC career with the Mike Brown Bengals, but Marvin Lewis already is a mediocre coach, isn't he?

That sure seems like an extreme case, but Mixon has already shown that he is more than eager to say what is on his mind and suggest via social media what he wants the team to do.  If we don't pull ourselves out of the consecutive losing season downturn things could get ugly.  I mean, Mixon is super talented and the enthusiasm we have for him is legit, but Jeremy Hill also went from fan favorite to persona non grata over the span of a single season so the NFL moves quickly.
