Because we don't put our foot down on their throats when we have a chance. 

We had a legit chance to have a huge lead into half vs Baltimore.
Bad call by the refs and then typical chicken shit Marvin stuff keeps it close. 

Sorry but this "prevents momentum swings" is bullshit. 
Nothing gives an opposing team more momentum than the other team giving up and saying, okay, you guys get a break now. We're letting up. 

Agree with you on this.   The psychological part of the game is big.   I remember a game in Pittsburgh where the Bengals were ahead, but a field goal wins the game.  With almost no time on the clock the Steelers punch the ball in for  a touchdown.

After the game Bradshaw told the press that they wanted to make sure Cincinnati knew who the better team was.  They were not going to settle for the easy win.
