It seems we say this every week, but the Cincinnati Bengals (4-7) are really running out of time now.
They fell behind big to the Los Angeles Chargers (7-3) but then stormed back and tied it up thanks to Joe Burrow, Tee Higgins, Ja’Marr Chase, and the defense actually doing its job. But then that same defense fell apart on the Chargers’ final drive.
So what did we learn from the heartbreaking loss?
Evan McPherson is a mess
The warm feeling from his rookie season is gone. He is missing more than his share of long field goals, and it’s costing the Bengals games.
