ESPN.com is currently running a poll - asking which state has the "worst pair of NFL teams". Although, we've been talking for days about how bad the Rams and Chiefs are, we completely overlooked the Bengals and Browns.
Truth be told - although the pair in Ohio are bad, we're not convinced of their overall crapiness. Here's the difference; Cincinnati and Cleveland were *supposed* to be good. They're not. The Rams and Chiefs were *supposed* to be bad. They are. There's hope the Ohio teams will turn things around. That same hope doesn't exist this side of the Mississippi.
As the results at ESPN.com show, 90% of the voters inside the Missouri borders agree.
