Exhibit A why they don't have back to back winning seasons in 30 years.

Not at all. I'm tired of the same tired ass performances year after year, week after week.

AJ laughing about dropping not 1, but 2 balls.

Dalton throwing everywhere BUT his receivers' hands in the 2nd half.

Just another Bengals December.

Because AJ has a drop problem, right?

It's not hard to figure out the offense had a terrible day. We've won 4 out of the last 5 and are tied for a WC spot. You are overreacting.

Bengal Decembers are still better than 90's Bungal Decembers.

Seems like in the '90s the Bengals were always great in December giving everyone hope that "next year" would be different. It wasn't.

I thought it was a pretty good game. We couldn't convert a couple of good TD chances. I've been watching this stuff for 40 years. You just watched a normal NFL game. Sometimes you get the last second FG for the win, sometimes its the other guy. It really has NOTHING to do with franchise history. That stuff is jaded fan fodder.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

Reminded me of the Houston game last year at home. Dominated the whole game, left way too many point on the board, rookie 3rd-stringer TJ Yates orchestrates a last-minute, game-winning drive.

Unbelievable.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

At the end of the day Baltimore, Pittsburgh and the Bengals all lost so not much really changed. What sucks is we could have put some serious pressure on Baltimore with a win today.

At the end of the day, Baltimore and Pittsburgh have proven over time that they are capable of turning the switch back on, and winning games that mean something.

The Bengals haven't.

Just another in a long line of let-downs

Sure its a letdown, a bummer of a loss, but the "same old Bungles" after every freakin' bad thing that happens to the Cincinnati Bengals football team is just intolerable anymore.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

The loss stings but not as bad as losing to Cleveland and Miami. Bengals need pros that learn from these games, I think Green, Atkins, and Dalton are the types to take it to the next level and learn from this loss.

Then the team needs to fix it.

Because as soon as they actually play to win, and do something unlike the same old Bungles did, then they will turn the corner.

They are allergic to any type of success.

If we were allergic to success would we be competing for our 3rd playoff appearance in 4 years? Seriously.

What does a Wild Card participant get?

If you are happy being in the same exact GD spot the team has been since 2005, that's on you.

You can't really blame fans for feeling that way until they actually have success in the playoffs.
