In a game in which the Bengals were blowing out a more popular team on the national stage, was it really surprising that there was controversy with the refs in a moment that sparked a slight comeback for Cincinnati’s opponent?
With 1:02 left in the first-half, the Ravens trailed the Bengals 28-7 and had the ball at their own 19 yard-line. Following a dropped interception by cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick way downfield, the Ravens marched down the field in just three plays and found themselves at the Bengals’ 31 yard-line with 30 seconds remaining until half-time.
