Not for the faint of heart, because this is bound to bring up some painful memories. Mo brings up a lot of the obvious what-ifs: Carson's knee, the 2005 draft class, Chris Henry, etc. We were so close so many times it makes me sick
One thing I definitely agree with Mo on is that the final three games 2006 were a more sickening choke job than the 2015 wild card playoff loss. The Christmas Eve botch XP in Denver, Shayne Graham shanking (and laughing
) the game winning field goal, then the long TD pass given up in OT... A sign of things to come in the Marvin Lewis era for sure.
As sad as it is, the Marvin Lewis era will be mostly known for one thing: countless missed opportunities.
