Leave it to the Cincinnati Bengals to win their season opener in an overtime thriller.
We’ll admit there was a moment when we didn’t think they could do it, right around when head coach Zac Taylor decided to go for it on a fourth down in the Bengals territory at the end of the game.
When Kirk Cousins led a 60-yard field goal drive to send the game to overtime, we’ll also admit we were shaking our heads, ready to turn off the television and badmouth Taylor for the rest of the day.
