The chances of that happening with the Bengals is probably slim. This win over Cleveland , Bobby Hart playing a few decent not terrible games and Johnson maybe being decent has people drinking the cool aid again and making it seem like this team is close to being ok and that we only need a few minor changes. Bottom line is this roster is bad and needs a ton of work.
Exactly,
Four of our last 5 games were against the 7-9 Jets who have -83 net points, and the 25th D in the NFL. The 5-11 Dolphins that have -188 net points and the 30th ranked D. And two against the 6-10 Browns with -58 net points, the 22nd ranked D and one of the worst D's against the run. Not to mention just being in total disarray !
Because we won 2 of those games and took another to OT (that took literally an epic feat to get back in, in final seconds) people act like everythings fixed and we're close, again.
Mike Brown ? Is that you ?
I'm not saying this team didn't improve at all in the final stretch, they did. But you have to temper your elation and consider the competition.
This team has a lot, and I mean a lot of work to do in the offseason to become anything close to relevant next season !
