Sunday's game at Paycor Stadium was emblematic of the entire 2025 Bengals Season. Even worse, this season ended with a loss to the Cleveland Browns. 

Alex Frank and Art Valero discuss the atrocities that unfolded in Cincinnati and how this better result in major changes. No matter how bad a season is, this was a terrible way for it to end. The Bengals' defense did play well, but not when it counted. 

Are we worried about Joe Burrow throwing three pick sixes in five weeks? How much should we worry about Evan McPherson this offseason? 

Finally, Alex includes the show with a message to the Bengals front office, while referencing a classic 80's rock song.
