And if you do decide to come back to reality and agree with that, do you think maybe that could have a detrimental effect on their on field play?

They are not out of control, that is a falsehood, it's mainly been two players, one is gone for the year and his replacement is better than him and he probably won't be with the Bengals anymore, the other Chris Henry would have helped yesterday, because he's big and fast and stretches the field, yes in that sense his off field problems hurt the team...
The roughing the passer call was horrible and cost them the game, you could probably get the Buccaneers fans to agree to that, instead of being 2nd and 16 from the 46, it went to 1st and 10 from the 25, huge difference and obviously a huge help to Tampa Bay...
What someone that may not know or watch the team is that they had their starting middle linebacker out because of injury, the strongside linebacker out with injury, his replacement out with injury, their starting safety out with injury....
The Bengals had alot of penalties yesterday, but alot of them were false starts, because they were playing with their 3rd center in 4 weeks, because of injury, they had a rookie starting at guard, and then early in the game their starting Left Tackle got injured, so the Center went to Left Tackle, a backup Center came in, so they had one guy playing out of place and two new guys playing...Also, Carson is not 100% and with the O line problems not going to be fixed soon, there's cause for concern...But they do get Chris Perry back, he's a difference maker and he's been out with injury and they will get a trouble maker back after next week in Chris Henry....
Their problems are not because of off of the field problems, they are due to injury...The bad news is their O Line may not be fixable this year, the good news is that they are getting most of the Playmakers back within the week and some of those key guys on Defense...They have not played close to their best ball, but they are 3-2 and the Ravens are 4-2, Pitt and Cleveland are non-factors, so they have a nice shot at winning the Division again...
