The Cincinnati Bengals just got their doors blown off by the Tennessee Titans, a team that had one of the worst offenses in the league entering Week 4. That didn't stop the Titans from putting up 24 points on the Bengals in the first half, walking away with a 27-3 win, and sending the Bengals home at 1-3 on the year.
Let's just say it -- This game sucked. The Bengals offense came out of the gates hot and then failed to do anything else for the rest of the game. The defense couldn't stop the Titans and let that offense do whatever the heck it wanted. That was capped off by a Derrick Henry touchdown pass before the end of the first half.
The Bengals got walloped by one of the worst offenses in the NFL and now they're in full-blown panic mode. The team is 1-3, their offense is in shambles, and the defense is a shell of itself. This loss might be the beginning of a rough season for Bengals fans.
We're all in this together, folks. Let's look at what the fans (and fans of other teams) are saying.

Zac Taylor definitely took a beating on social media for the decisions and play calls he made during the game.

The last two tweets sum up how badly Joe Burrow has looked this season.

I don’t like seeing all this negativity around Zac Taylor. That’s my lane. Y’all stay over there in your “Taylor culture” lanes. Everyone came at my head for that. Don’t switch up now. I need that same positivity. #RuleTheJungle #Titans #Bengals #CINatTEN

Ouch. We marched to the Ten Seas confident and return home humbled. My calf, tender. My heart, heavy. I still believe in the men tho finding glory this campaign is proving rather daunting. I shan’t write again until we are victorious once more and honor regained.
