With that said, if the attitude is going to be to bash McPherson for missing a kick, I expect this fan base to bash Burrow for every interception, any player fumbling, a receiver dropping a ball, etc.

Keep in mind that had Mason Crosby not missed his XP and the first missed FG, the Bengals would have been down by 4 right at the end of the game. The fact the Bengals were even on the verge of winning is because of missed kicks from the other team.

Yeah we aren't in a position to complain about luck this season.  We were lucky we had a single shot to win on Sunday and yet we got to blow it multiple times. 

We looked a gift horse in the arse, so to speak.
