You could feel there was going to be an epic performance by the Bengals never seen before on that Monday night and it showed on their faces and in Burrow's eyes.
Not this time around, though.
I think a lot of it was the pace of the game. The Bengals seem to do a lot better when there is a fast game flow and a good pace.
That game last night was a slog. Good Lord, it seemed like there was a stoppage every 2 minutes and it made it really hard to watch.
I mean, when Apple got hurt the game went to commercial for like 7 minutes. Then they came back and the Ravens called timeout and the game
stopped for another 3 minutes for some reason.
Not to mention the Ravens kept going on long , methodic drives that slowed the game to a crawl. The crowd had a lot of sitting around time and it sucked the energy right out of the stadium.
