No there isn’t a difference. You are arguing the team
is in bad shape because of their roster. The same roster that was 2nd, 2nd, 6th, 2nd in the critical areas i mentioned.
We had the exact same record. It was good enough for 1st in their division and the draw of LV, Tennessee. We likely beat those teams, and they like lot lose in Buffalo, so that is a consideration in your implication that we don’t not compare to the Bengals.
Are we really going to do this? I paraphrase what you say or state what your comment implies and you are going to whine that they weren’t your exact words?
