It doesn't take a decade for a rebuild, we've seen it here before. In less time than it takes to get through high school, we went from the worst team in the league to staring down Tom Brady in the Super Bowl.

Fast forward a few years and we went from the number 1 pick to a season with only 2 losses and it should have been 1 loss. 

Matt Rhule inherited a team far better than John Fox did, far better than Ron Rivera did, and they made immediate strides. Rhule is just a bad coach and a worse evaluator of talent. That is all this is.

What truly stud qb have we passed on in this time period that we had a chance at though?  QBs that can change the game on their own (without an oline) are few and far between unfortunately. 

Trading for one that’s terrible under pressure is the Rhule Way.

You know the answer to your question

 bottom line, Rhule was afraid   As I recall Hurney was in love with Justin Herbert.

That's kind of cherry picking.  Do you really want to use the Bengals as how not to have 7 years of losing seasons?

Yes, absolutely we do. 

Zac Taylor has been there for three seasons.

First season, they were terrible.

Second season, they made progress.

Year three, AFC Championship game.

It doesn't take 7 years to rebuild. It is actually comical for any coach to think that it does. 7 years is a huge period of time when the average NFL career comes in somewhere around 2.5 years. A 7 year rebuild is essentially saying that you need nearly 3 full passes on your roster to get it right.

The Bengals hadn't won a postseason game in 30+ years .. it took them 30+ years to make a winning team

Nothing that happened 30 years ago plays any role in this. This regime turned it around in 3 years. I'm not going to mock Zac Taylor because the Bengals sucked when he was in grade school. He turned them around in 3 years.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
