Anyone else feel just "meh" about the game, today?

[Interceptor]

I'm not feeling it. The offense stalls again.

Guys I've figured it out and I apologize.

I was born Feb 1990, Bengals haven't won a playoff game since Jan 1990. Oh, but the coincidences don't end there. We are 0-3 in games I've attended this year so I've vowed to not go to any others. If pitchforks are raised, I'll take all the punishment.

Ummmm, this team lost to MIKE WHITE.   You really have no business being optimistic about "Teddy freaking Bridgewater"  OR now "Drew freaking Lock"

It's a win for god sakes. The Bengals have only won three times in Denver in 50 years. Denver's defense is tough, but Joe still able to hit Tyler for the game winner. I love it!

[Frank Booth]

I feel good about the win. Paired with the Ravens loss

Still not sure if they make the playoffs with all the injuries compiling

Agreed, if you come out of Denver with a win then it's happy time!   Glad the Bengals won today.

While you certainly deserve blame...at least you aren't Housh.

Unless you managed to magically kill Paul Brown AND sire Mike Brown it's hard to hold you responsible for all this.

IIRC housh disappeared for like an hour in the GD thread after his post.

I WANT to be optimistic, but the INCONSISTENCY they've shown just dampens it.
I'll probably watch the game (if it's available in my area) but I may not.  I may just check the score occasionally.

I really don't know what to say to this.  Apparently you call yourself a fan, but you might not watch the game?

If you can't enjoy this FIRST PLACE CINCINNATI BENGALS team, you should give me and others a break and not post about it.

It ended up not being available in my area (central PA) so I only caught bits and pieces on NFL Redzone.  But regardless, I got work to do around here on Sundays... I can't just drop everything and plop my ass in front of a TV.

Can you remind me about Mixon's no fumble streak

I was pessimistic going into this game, but turned it on after halftime and started feeling better. When I think they're gonna blow it they pull it off. When I think they're gonna win it they blow it.. I think I'll remain pessimistic the rest of the season and enjoy our superbowl win after the fact..

That’s new.

This ^^^^

The Bengals were 6-25-1 entering this season. They've played one of the toughest schedules in the league and now stand 8-6 and in first place. Yes there are a few games they should have won but if anyone can't appreciate the advancements they've made this year and not be excited about the future then I don't know what to tell ya.

Appreciate it. Looking back at this post I realize that I should have said in the past two seasons before this season they were 6-25-1.
