Bengals Stuff…

IKR. That is why they will win 8.

I was going to say 8 but I just see no way this team gets to 8 wins. I don't know that I can watch a game and feel motivated to root for losing. But come draft time I'll probably be wishing we had lost more games.

We can definitely win 8.

Cincinnati is banged up and inconsistent as hell, Carolina is Carolina, and Tampa just got lucky as hell to squeak by Carolina in OT. We've already beaten Washington and they may not need to win that game if they've already clinched a wild card.

I think it's unlikely but I'd give it at least a 25% chance of happening.

Yeah but even that Carolina feels like they are playing a lot better. We are pretty big underdogs to the Bengals and are way more banged up than they are. Tampa is just better than us.

I hope for a bunch of close losses. But on the positive side, a loss upsets me zero. And a win still feels kind of good.

I think we lose to Tampa and Philly.

The players haven't given up and it feels like they are playing for McCarthey. We may end up picking in the early 20s and keeping the coaching staff. How is that for a kick in the nuts?

I can't see us making the playoffs at 8-9 so picking in the 20's isn't an issue.

Might end up picking at about 17 though.

Are you trying to get banned?

Still think we probably lose to Cincy. We played a really good game against the Skins, but that Giants game... If we'd stomped them, that would be one thing, but we barely beat the worst team in the league starting a 3rd string QB.

Anyway, we'll finish where we deserve to finish and have a high enough pick wherever that is.

Rush is inevitably going to fuck up a game with like 3 turnovers, he got close last week.

This part is kind of crazy to me. I thought a few weeks ago he had lost full control of the team and players. I really thought everyone had given up on him or turned on him. But they appear to be rallying now. Props to McCarthy for that.

This has all been an elaborate psy-ops.

Not possible unless we win at least 9 games and somehow sneak in as a wildcard.

 

[Cotton]

Jesus Christ, the NFL is such a joke now.

I dont think it will but it could happen.

If we win 9 and get into the playoffs with Rush and the rest of our issues, McCarthy deserves a contract extension.

Well that is true but he admitted to having as much say in this roster so that doesn't bode well going forward. I fear it will just be much of the same last three years. Win most of the regular season and a joke in the playoffs.

I'm fine with moving on from Mike, but do you think a new coach is going to get us farther without some pretty massive talent upgrades?

Well he said he was ok with the all in plan. I don't really feel confident with him now. I know we need upgrades but really should we feel confident in the front office that traded for Lance with no plan and Mingo?

No, I have no confidence in Jerry. I meant the coach, who I don't consider part of the front office.

Just because Mike doesn't trash Jerry at the PCs doesn't mean he agreed with the idiotic trades, signings, and punting on free agency.

That was going on long before Mike got here, though.

He said that he had plenty of say in this roster. I know that Lance and pretty sure Mingo wasn't on him but he was evidently good with punting on FA.
