End of half or game scoring - pally - 02-01-2022
The Bengals have played 20 games this season. They scored in the last 2 minutes of the 1st half 14 times. They scored in the last 2 minutes of the 2nd half 5 times and twice won in walk off fashion in OT.
They have had plenty of game time practice at a 2 minute drill
I knew it had been a lot but until I wrote it down didn't realize how many times. It is so good to be past the days of thinking the 2nd QTR was 13 minutes or an opportunity for someone else to score against us

It's about time that *pally* finally does something around here.
obviously kidding. As usual, thanks for the interesting post.

If I did my math correctly that comes to 95 points you listed above. Our point differential for the season plus playoffs is only +97.

And if we all remember correctly, this used to happen against the Bengals all the time. Whoever they were playing would get the ball back with 2 min or less and go right down the field, and get points. And that always seemed to be the difference between a win and a loss. Another thing that seems to have turned around for us this year.

Again, reflects the culture change. These guys expect something good to happen late to get them a victory. Polar opposite from years gone by. Burrow & Taylor have totally changed the culture from a losing mentality to one that expects to win. It is amazing!

It's why it shouldn't take an organization 16 years to change coaches... but that's nor here or there.. lets enjoy the moment :)

Taylor took over a team that had made the playoffs 6 of the previous 10 years.
Marvin Lewis was the coach who changed the culture here.
