The Bengals lost to the Giants on Monday night in spectacularly uninspiring fashion. They played it safe on fourth down (after plenty of unmanageable third downs), wilted against a weak rushing offense, and continued their trend of losing relatively close games. The Bengals are 3-5-1, and very possibly could lose against a run-heavy Buffalo team in Cincinnati on Sunday. And yet, optimism abounds at the Fulcher 2 Stay Podcast! (Eat your heart out, David O. Russell.) Not for this season of course; that’s already just about gone to shit. But next year, it might not be as bad. (Repeat this to yourself 10 times in a row after each Tyrod Taylor touchdown this week.)
