So I feel like the Bengals are in for another repeat next year. Nothing will change, we'll still have Dalton, still have Green, still have an aged defense, still have Bernard and Hill. We'll probably be good enough to make the playoffs and thats about it. We'll still rush 4 and drop into a soft zone and get carved up for easy points under the great game plan genius that is Marvin Lewis. Which is frustrating. I almost preferred us being a complete non-factor so I didn't have to get my hopes up. Only bright spot is that there shouldn't be a universe where Kirkpatrick isn't our starter next year and maybe Lewis will finally get his head out of his ass and play some younger, more talented people instead of the past-their-prime veteren players who are solid but lack any big play threat.
