Biggest heartbreaking season at mid point?

[*SHRacerX*]

The losses have been BS and heartbreaking, yes. It would have been so much for Burrow to be "in the mix" for the playoffs as the kid just seems to rise in the biggest games, but the thing that we should focus on is the positive. We most definitely have a QB that can win a Super Bowl. That is the hardest part. That is a huge positive. Add in the draft picks 1-5 have had significant playing time and are doing very well (#6 getting his shot this weekend) is another positive.

If I am being honest with myself, as much as I hated watching Baker throw something like 20 consecutive completions and douche it up after beating the Bengals last weekend, that win would have only cost the Bengals a draft pick. They are likely to get a pretty high pick next year, and with just a couple more moves in FA with healthy players returning, the Bengals will be a contender next year. Nothing heartbreaking about that.
