Jesus that depresses me. Thanks Matty, I'm going to kill myself now. jk

I want to scream hang in there. I feel like Gibbs' return gave us more than good coaching, it brought our sideline a sense of pride and credibility that we haven't had in years. I hope the players return next year with the same commitment.

I know many think, "these guys get paid millions, they'd better be working their asses off!" But put yourself in their shoes. They've been treated like royalty since they were in high school because they had great abilities (plus they'd kick your ass if you laughed at them). They've been the best as what they do for years now. They were used to winning nearly every game by a landslide.

Now, they've been struggling to get to .500 for the past several years, joked about in the press, laughed at by the friggin Bengals, and watch their hard work go to waste 6 out of every 10 Sundays. It would be hard not to get down.
