Looking through the in game thread I saw people saying things like, “Joe Burrow isn’t the guy” or “he’s just a system QB who’s injured to often.” It genuinely makes my blood boil to see how some of y’all seem to have forgotten what it was like to be a bengals fan before 2021. I know we didn’t win the Super Bowl but winning the playoff game against the Raiders was straight euphoric. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion and I know emotions are high but the amount of negativity and people turning on the guy who literally turned our franchise around is gross. I may not agree with all the decisions that the team makes but it’s gonna take a lot more than one .500 season for me to forget what it was like during the Marvin Lewis era and how much easier it is to be a fan now.
It’s crazy how many bandwagon fans that have accumulated since we started winning. You can spot them a mile away. I knew that success brings the lowest common denominator but I didn’t think there would be so many fragile idiots making the most noise.

You should consider getting off social media and reddit, at least when it comes to sports. I’m thinking about it too. Gotta weigh the positives vs the negatives.
