They ended up coming back to win that game with Turk Schonert coming in for an ineffective Anderson. Anderson was told that Schonert was going to start against the Jets the following week. He told Gregg that he should be the starter and talked him into getting one more chance. Bengals won that game 31-30 after trailing 14-0. Anderson went on to have a great year that year and we all know how the rest of the story unfolded.
Imagine if Anderson wasn't able to convince Gregg to keep him as the starter?
Well sounds like Turk should have gotten more chances...
