One year ago, Antonio Gibson was somewhat an afterthought on a loaded Memphis Tigers offense. Now, Gibson is blossoming into the feature back for the Washington Football Team.

There are no style points in the National Football League. If there were, Washington would have received none for their 20-9 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. Had it not been for miscues by the Bengals’ offense, missed kicks, and a devastating knee injury to Joe Burrow, the Football Team would have definitely taken their eight loss on the season.
