No no, I'm on board with his thinking. When no one takes us to win it's because they hate us. When most, or even all of them take us to win it means they hate us and want us to lose so they can "shit on us." When exactly half of them take us to win it means they hate the Bengals through sheer neutrality.
No matter how many analysts pick the Bengals to win we can conclude they are doing so out of nothing more than pure contempt for the Bengals, duh!
