Elsewhere in the multiverse, the Bengals are Super Bowl champions — here's how

One common pastime amongst any NFL fan base is to play armchair GM, imagining a world where their front office and team bow to their every whim and build a perennial Super Bowl-contending juggernaut. This is especially the case with Cincinnati Bengals fans.

Not to speak for everyone in the larger Who Dey Nation, but let's be honest: When was the last time you, reader, were genuinely satisfied with the Bengals brain trust's construction of the team? It's fair to say they've been more than a little conservative at times.

Whether it's dragging their feet on extending in-house talent, not being proactive enough at all stages of free agency, or stubbornly sticking and picking in the draft to rather mixed-to-be-kind results, a majority of the Cincinnati faithful are often fed up with the front office and ownership.
