Go Bolts!
We dropped one of the winnable games on the calendar. Not we need to pick it up and win one of the games that are not "easy".
If we think we deserve to be in the playoffs we need to beat the Fins.

I'm going to go ahead and channel my inner NYBolt... I'm kinda done. We can lose out, I want this coaching staff gone and TT to go with them. I'm fully aware that is not the Spanos way, but losing out leaves no question on the table. Injuries be damned, this is not a playoff team and 1 and done only feeds the frustration and allows Staley to keep his job.
From here on out we'll likely beat the Colts and that's it...
I applaud all you other guys enthusiasm but change hopefully comes quicker with a collapse. I hate that for Herbert, but he deserves better.

Did anyone watch the Bengals play the Chiefs? That is how this team is supposed to be... Burrow looked like a QB and he has weapons... I'm not talking about injuries either, he straight up has weapons. That team has an identity and they have heart. This team has injuries and a social media account. Its 2 sides to a coin and we are tails.

Its 2 sides to a coin and we are tails. Burrow has changed the culture in Cincinnati as much if not more than anyone else. Whether its Herbert, Staley, or Lombardi, we are lacking. Sorry for the cheesy 80’s reference but Justin has lost the eye of the tiger. He’s been that guy I watched for years in Oregon. Dazzling skills that disappear for big chunks of games. I agree with those that say that Philip would go rogue if he didn’t buy the play calling. Herbert, the past month, has been very passive. The first third of the season he was clearly playing hurt. Now he slides on second down when he could have gotten the first, runs the play that’s called on third, and trots off the field on 4th. No fire, no killer instinct. All that was there his first two seasons. He used to look like he was having fun. Not anymore. Something is rotten in Denmark. Our star QB has lost his mojo He’s more Derek Carr than Josh Allen at this point. He and the rest of the team are just going thru the motions. I’m not sure I’m ready to scrape Staley. I want both coordinators gone. They suck, and Staley isn’t good nor experienced enough to overcome that. Dan Quinn took the Falcons to the SB with an MVP in Matt Ryan. But those that were close (I live 3 miles from the Falcons facility) quickly realized that it was more about Kyle Shanahan than Dan Quinn. I don’t know how good Staley can be with competent inventive coordinators. I do know how disappointing he is with tomato cans.

I don’t know how good Staley can be with competent inventive coordinators. I do know how disappointing he is with tomato cans. Herbert to me looks and plays anxious, unsettled, and un-aggressive—much different than his rookie year. I’m beginning to loathe his PR-generator press conferences: No emotions, just prepared and generic talking points. Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, heck, even Tua and Hurts—they play with some fire. Herbert has the physical tools but I don’t see the fire. (That said, perhaps his injury and the pressure this year really has him playing differently. It would not be surprising given how bad the line has been.) |

You were the one that didn't want to hear the negativity ? Right ? Just keeping it real here. The bolded part is Nominated for Smack of the Week as well ! Some see it earlier than others Some bitch and moan about everything. Some have a complete loser mentality while others have hard-ons for Staley, Telesco, and or Lombardi. There is so much confirmation bias going on that it's funny and sad at the same time. Others see the cup as half full all the time. If I tend to go in one direction, it's on the positive optimistic side. With that being said, please don't lump me in with the ones that are only truly happy when they are miserable. I will say that my investment level in this team is at its lowest since the Ryan Leaf days. I'm unwilling to let a pastime effect my happiness and this shit show is barely watchable at this point.
