It is not that uncommon for a game to be close in score but many times the winning team has the ball at the end of the game or else the losing team is not close to scoring position. What I am talking about are games that are literally decided on the last play of the game. Those games are not that common. Most two teams might have one or two over the course of a season.
But the last 4 wins by the Bengals in '21, the 4 wins that got them to the Super Bowl were ALL decided on the last play of the game.
-Chiefs... FG on last play of game after a drive that featured a 3rd-and-27 conversion and two defensive penalties that wiped out 4th down stops.
-Raiders.... stopped on Bengals 4 yard line with 10 seconds left.
-Titans.... FG on last play of game set up by an interception on a tipped pass.
-Chiefs.... FG on last play of game set up by interception on tipped pass.
So if say this type of stuff happens all the time then just give me an example.
Not just one game but the last 4 wins in a row that got a team to the Super Bowl.
And not just games that were close in score, but games that were decided on the last play.
Show me.
Fred’s narrative way off as standard.
In the AFC Championship it was KC who was behind and the defense rose to the occasion and held them to a regulation ending tying field goal. Then got an interception and drove to a field goal in OT
Against the Raiders we held the 26-19 lead and came up with the last second INT to ice the game. That’s not a fluke. We led almost the entire game.
The Titans game was close the whole game. The lead changed hands but the game was tied when we got the last minute interception. How is that any different than Jimmy Garrapolo throwing a late pick to lose to LA? It’s not
In the regular season game with KC we took the lead in the fourth and it was the Bengals defense that held KC to a tying field goal. Then we went on a consuming 6 minute drive to go win the game and keep the ball out of Patrick Mahomes hands as time expired.
Such a false narrative by Fred
