Who would have thought Cincinnati had a shot against the Los Angeles Chargers; a team sporting a top-five offense and a top-ten defense?
Openly, I’m not the most confident Bengals fan right now — the illegal pick against Pittsburgh allowing the Steelers to steal a win remains a catalyst of the air that’s being squeezed from our collective lungs. Kansas City and New Orleans happened; then the accumulation of injuries finally sent the Bengals into a tailspin.
Competitive games. Moral victories. You despise saying it. You hate yourself for thinking it.
