I don't know what he looked like as far as his facial expressions, but he had a damn nice return that last KO to set the Bengals up well for a final chance.  

Those backup CBs didn't give Lafell, Eifert, or AJ any room, either.  That bomb to AJ the defender got there too soon and whiffed.  But three defenders were right there.

I don't know if they are telegraphing their routes, but they sure as hell weren't getting any separation.

Just as big a disgrace was the fact that even with two deep safeties, the Bengals couldn't run the ball.
