The whole point was that the Bengals are more tested down the stretch than the Bills.  

Meh, we were one extremely unlikely play away from disaster.  Football is a game of inches and all that, but we lucked out a bit more than the Bills did...that's my 2 cents.

And I woludn't care if the Bengals somehow managed to win all their games against 0-17 teams, I'm taking Burrow over Allen any day.

Still the Bengals have the weapons to get it done, if we can just keep Burrow upright.

It's better to keep him upright, but we've won games where he's taken half a seasons worth of sacks in a day.
