                                The Bengals problem isn't the QB, the WR's or the coaching.  The offensive line and the secondary have been horrible.  The linebackers, outside of Burfict, are pretty bad.  Big Ced has been hammered on for his rookie struggles, but it's not like making him the starter didn't make sense.  Bodine, Boling and Zeitler have also been a liability.
Unfortunately, the season is probably lost if they don't run off 6 of 7 wins, and likely those wins have to be against Pittsburgh and Baltimore twice to have a shot. The AFC is one of the worst 2 or 3 divisions in the NFL though, so as bad as Cincy has been, they still control their own destiny to win the division.
I just don't see it getting better, not because of the talent, but because the trends are all negative. Also, for as well as they have drafted, we've seen a major lack of production from the last few draft classes.

                        When I was in undergrad I was playing flag football and caught a knee to the face. I busted my cheek bone and spent the night in the hospital; don't remember anything until the next morning. I was told that when it happened, I was unconscious for a few seconds, got up and jogged off the field, and stood on the sideline for a couple of minutes like nothing had happened. My friends said the next thing they knew I was walking around bawling and telling people I didn't know where I was or who anyone was. Didn't know my own name at the ER half an hour later.Heretic;1825276 wrote:On Deadspin, someone posted a link in the comments to a condition caused by head trauma where a person can cry or laugh essentially against their will due to the part of their brain which regulates emotion being scrambled.

                                Anyone notice who wasn't out on the field checking to see how the leader of the defense was?  Instead he was too busy playing with the towel on his head chewing gum. That's the best LB in football, the lifeblood of your team and you're not out there at all?

                                Dalton looked decent on the drive sans Green, assuming the TD call stands.
