The "if" game

[The Real Deal]

Finish this sentence:

If we lose to the Browns and give them their first win I will _______.

[Gohards]

Jump in the ocean with slit wrists

[Pat5775]

Finally and seriously call the season a wash and do something else with my Sunday's

[*Awful Llama*]

Not be terribly surprised.

Not be THAT surprised with the questionable play calling and lack of accountability.

"Go into my 90's mode"

This is where I only watch to see if certain players can break records, and how high we will draft next year.

I start hoping for more losses for the very slim chance that Mikey will make a rare change to the staff.

Get on here - piss and moan like I always do after another Marvin Lewis FUBAR game.  I imagine Hue will have the Brownies fired up and ready to WHUP the Girl(s) from Cinc-y-panema. His way of contributing to the "Get rid of Marvin" movement. Thanks Hue.

[Fan_in_Kettering]

...congratulate Hue Jackson for taking advantage of all the Bengals' weaknesses because he knows where -- and who -- they are.

[Nicomo Cosca]

Complain for a week, and then watch the next game. Like everyone else here.

[*bengalfan74*]

Not be all that surprised. This team is in the process of imploding under Marvin Lewis and his LOL coaching staff.

[Clappington]

If we lose to the Browns and give them their first win I will join Harambe in peace.

Rep!! Oh so sad, yet oh so true!!

Shrug, turn off the TV, and anxiously wait for the premiere of The Walking Dead.


I don't get people who live vicariously through football teams.

[Atomic Orange]

Don't say that buddy, now your going to start getting the classic responses from Homers like, "Well your no fan if you want them to lose...go find another team to root for! We dont need you! We lost to a very good upcoming young Browns team and we still have a chance to win the division and go far in the playoffs because our division is so weak!"

[bengalguy71]

Carry on with the rest of my life which is way above the Bengals and football games.

[THE PISTONS]

Come on...people on the board will be doing some form of what they've always done after 5 straight playoff losses and no playoff wins in 24+ years...and a total self-destruction of epic proportions of last years playoffs.

People will do some combination of these:

1) Blame the officials/NFL.
2) Come up with scenarios where the Bengals make a miraculous run and finish 10-6 and make the playoffs.
3) Come up with scenarios where Marvin is fired and a big name coach is brought in. (It would be Guenther or Zampese or someone already in the Bengals organization.)
4) Say 'We made the playoffs 5 years in a row...we'll get them next year!'

To follow a team that hasn't won a playoff game in 24+ years...you have to see the irrational silver-lining.
