If Burrow continued getting injured year to year, roughly half a season every other year, is there a point where you would want to bail and try to find someone consistently available? Because honestly, I feel like his injuries linger around when they happen and he's not as productive. I'm just curious if there's a line where you're "done" so to speak.
December 12th, 2021 at around 2:30pm. That's the closest i've come to being "done". Four + decades worth of fandom and i was sick and tired of the same ole 'build em up to let em down'. Threw a tirade in my car as i ran back to work at halftime to get something i forgot and then wondered why i cared so much and got so angry. From that point i've been much less emotionally involved and enjoyed the relative good times without flipping out at the failures. If it happens it happens. If not, whatev. I could never become a fan of another team though.

The injuries to key Bengals players are just par for the course over the last 47 years of being a fan.
