They simply never even got to average at OT for a QB that badly needs protection to perform.
History won't remember these Bengals at all, but to whatever extent it can be bothered to stoop to notice them, it will look back on them as one of the least successful wide-open windows in modern NFL history.
You judge greatness by its graveyard and Patrick Mahomes has placed a few black and orange tombstones in his. Bills fans can bitch all day about Josh Allen being the right quarterback at the wrong time, but it's the Bengals that absolutely should've won SOMETHING over the last few seasons.

All three of those positions had Top 5 in the league talent as well.
