CINCINNATI -- Like most inside Sports Authority Field's visitor's locker room late Monday night, Carlos Dunlap had a hard time explaining his emotions following the Cincinnati Bengals' stunning overtime loss to the Denver Broncos.
One of several Bengals who had desperately wanted a win that would have locked them into a first-round playoff bye, the defensive end was still thinking about the defeat when a reporter wandered over to his locker. Dunlap's mind was so preoccupied that he couldn't focus on buttoning the cuffs to his black dress shirt, and asked for assistance.
