The 2025 Columbus Crew season ended in the toughest way possible… a Game 3 playoff loss to FC Cincinnati in Hell Is Real. We break down the Crew’s 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs elimination after falling in the First Round, react to what went wrong in the 2-1 loss, and talk through the emotions of a rivalry postseason heartbreak. But then with the season officially over, we turn to the future. What does Columbus need to fix in 2026? Which players showed out, who took a step back, and what moves does the front office need to make this offseason? We give a full Columbus Crew roster breakdown, talk offseason needs, transfer priorities, contract questions, and what it will take to get back to MLS Cup contention.
