After giving the football back to the Houston Texans at their own 20-yard line with 2:33 remaining in the game, T.J. Yates completes 11 and seven-yard passes to Owen Daniels when the game reaches the two-minute warning.

Star-divide

From Houston's 38-yard line the Texans lineup second and three with two minutes remaining in the game. Yates fires an incomplete pass downfield setting up a third and three and one of the smallest crowds during a Bengals regular season game is fired up. As he's going down, Yates fires a fast ball to a Daniels, picking up the first down on the eight-yard reception.

On first and ten from the Bengals five-yard line, Michael Johnson registers a quarterback sack forcing a third and 15. Yates avoids the sack and sprints upfield, escaping the pressure and picking up the first down on a 17-yard scramble to the Bengals 23-yard line. After spiking the clock and an incomplete pass, Adam Jones is called for pass interference for hooking the receivers arm.

First and goal from the Bengals six-yard line with 12 seconds remaining in the game.

Following an incomplete pass, the Bengals used their second timeout. With eight seconds remaining in the game, Yates takes the shotgun snap. Kevin Walter, lined up wide right, cuts underneath and hauls in the touchdown reception to give the Texans a 20-19 lead with two seconds remaining.

3 points in the whole second half is embarassing

screwing up on the fourth and short too

well playoffs are pretty slim chance at this point. have to root for baltimore to win their next 3 so maybe just maybe they have nothing to play for last weekend.

Even if the bengals win out, the jets may run the table and make it to 11-5

Defense defense defense and Pac-man

Really, the worse I’ve seen the o-ine play at the end to close the game out. Then defense can’t stop a third string QB. Yep the bungles are back. Embarassed yet again to be a bengals fan. Thanks guys. I don’t why I keep rooting for you. You always let me and the rest of the fans down. Thanks keep it up.

JUST A HORRIBLE HORRIBL LOSS!!!

I represent the Bengals of Cincinnati with extreme passion and prejudice and make no apologies for it!

Sucks that we lost...

however seeing how the media and people in general thought of us as being a 0-16 team…I happy overall…still a slim chance we win the 3 final games and get a wild card…otherwise start backups…and on a side note enjoy the cincy/vandy liberty bowl game
