Matt’s Take: The Cincinnati Bengals are….exhausting
By Matthew McAdow
HCP columnist
I don’t even know what to type at this point. This is becoming boring and mundane week after week. Same story, same ridiculous outcome.
I can’t write about firing Zac for another 10 years. I can’t write about this team missing tackles week after week.
It’s exhausting, and it’s a Sunday ruiner week after week. And now they are going to ruin my Thanksgiving? I’d rather watch anything other than this same story. Looking at my wife and saying “one time” on every third down is laughable at this point. Cincinnati can’t get a stop to save their lives, and the play calling is the same as always.
Put a fork in this team, they are done. Don’t expect a clever column this week, this is just venting.
Ja’Marr should be suspended
Ja’Marr Chase should be suspended. You should never spit on another human, and it should be a heavy suspension from a hygiene standpoint. I hate Ramsey as much as anyone, but this is uncalled for. Let your play do the talking.
This just proves Zac has completely lost control leading the ship.
Burrow shouldn’t play this season
Why let Joe Burrow play this season when it is clearly over for the orange and black? I might even let Browning play at this point, as this season is over.
The worst thing to ever happen to this organization was that Super Bowl run, as Cincinnati never made the necessary moves following that year. Let Joe heal, maybe let both Joe heals, tank this season, and let someone other than Duke Tobin make the picks next season. Maybe even hire a few scouts, huh?
Positives from Sunday
DJ Turner is still one of the best in the league. Week in and week out, he handles his assignment.
I cut down 120 trees and am one step closer to having my son’s baseball field finished.
We are one day closer to the end of the Bengals' season. You know it’s bad when I say that.
The entire AFC North is awful. Steelers and all below are horrific. It’s the worst this division has looked in my lifetime that I can ever recall.
Cincinnati paid their quarterback and never figured out how to change their ways. It appears rookie quarterback deals and paying others is the only winning formula Cincinnati understands including with Palmer and Dalton years ago.
Bengals ticket prices are dropping.
One day closer to Reds baseball.
West Virginia Mountaineers look decent to begin the basketball season.
I got my wife to watch "Breaking Bad" with me – finally, best show ever made.
Negatives from Sunday
Still plenty of Bengals football left to endure.
Zac Taylor.
