If we only got a hold of Yates on that 3rd & 15...

we wouldn’t be biting our nails right now because we already would’ve clinched a playoff berth already. I know— shoulda, woulda, coulda.
I’m keeping a positive mindset and sending good vibes to Cincy for a WIN this weekend! Who dey!

We Believe!!!

Not so fast my friend....

Okay, so the Bengals blew that game. One game does not a season make.

2 point loss at Denver
5 point loss to San Francisco
7 point losses to both PIT and BLT
1 point loss to Houston
one blow out loss to PIT

This team could easily be 14-1 or 4-11 and anywhere in between.
That is why simply saying that drive could ultimately cost a playoff spot. 5 games won by 7 or fewer. Only one win by more 10 and that was courtesy a punt return and Turnover score at Seattle.

A season is just that – more than one game. Put Yates in the past, paint a target on Flacco and Rice, then return the favor to HOU in two weeks.
