2+ of those losses were with Dalton. The 3rd, against Pitt, they very likely weren't going to win anyway, and the 4th was a game they blew. You can argue Dalton missed the Denver game, but I can argue Manning missed the Denver game. The 5th loss was the playoffs, and AJ has much better playoff performance than Dalton. The fact is, the Bengals always choke in the playoffs, and usually choke in big regular season games. Who cares if you can win the division every year if you can't do anything with it?
I don't think Dalton was really in the running for MVP. It was always between Newton, Brady, and Palmer. Heck, the Bengals' MVP is Green.
Tougher game than the score indicates, Bengals had the Pats on their heels for much of the first half and were getting great pressure with only 4 rushers....
Not sure if they tired, not enough depth to continue but when the rush let up Brady picked apart the middle of the field with his tight ends...
Dalton didn't play badly but that safety changed the momentum in a big way....
The 2 defensive holding penalties that both occurred on 3rd down incompletions were also killers and changed the complexion of the game
Hope Eifert gets back soon would like to see your team take it to the Steelers....
Alright, so I really haven't gotten a chance to see the Bengals play yet this season. So, what's the deal with Jeremy Hill? Is he just not any good? Is the offensive line not opening any holes?

It's a combination of both actually but if I had to pick one, it's that the offensive line is bad. Their new Right Tackle Ced Ogbuehi is not cutting it (he got benched on Sunday), Kevin Zeitler is regressing and Russell Bodine was never really good in the first place.
The Bengals offensive line has been one of the better lines the past few years. Now, it looks awful and there's really only one person who was replaced (Ogbuehi replaced Andre Smith).
This Burfict sure is a pos player. What do you fans think of this guy?
Last year, the Broncos had Aqib Talib to deal with, perhaps losing us at least one game. But this year, his game cleaned up and he's helping the team win with multiple pic-6s. But he faces huge repercussions from the league due to stupidity in the off season.
Do you not cringe whenever #55 takes the field? Also, how did y'all feel about that Bengals crowd and their treatment of the Steelers in that playoff game last year? The rest of us fans around the league certainly have strong opinions about it.
The Bengals are so close to being a threat in the playoffs and to get to the Superbowl. Are they really going to let a guy like this bring them down? Or does every team have this one "guy" and it's no big deal?
I think it's more than bad blood in a divisional rivalry, I think the Bengals blew that playoff game due to their own stupidity. Does it get solved this year or not? Does Burfict continue to make headlines?
