Losing out on 1st pick

We're played 14 games...tried to win them all...and won ONCE. Even, if we somehow beat Miami...who is tanking and managed with win 3 games, we've already lost to Cleveland who we would play again. So there's no guarantee we'd beat them.

I'd say odds of us winning the last 2 are fairly low.

And, with our inept management...we all want Burrow, but maybe they pick Herbert at 1 or do something stupid. That could always happen here.

Yep. Many, many things can go wrong between now that when the Bengals actually pick in next year's draft.

The history of the Bengals since Mike Brown inherited the team and named himself GM has been pretty dismal, except for the seven or so good Marvin years. Outside of the good Marvin years, the franchise has done pretty much everything wrong that can be done by an NFL team.

So it's not surprising that fans are expecting the next stupid move and the pathetic 2019 off-season and regular season has only reinforced their concerns over what this team will do.

We really can't predict what this team, coaching staff and front office will do between now and the end of the season or with the draft picks they end up getting.

If the obvious correct move is A, the Bengals management by committee will have to meet endlessly to discuss the times they missed on what they thought was the obvious move, and there's a 50/50 chance that they'll talk themselves into move C, D or E, none of which anyone anywhere saw coming. That's how we get picks like Sample and Ross and Akili and the re-signing of Hart and many other moves either made or not made.
