I know it's something I haven't quite seen with Bengals' teams before.  It's some that analytics, PFF's , etc... can't quantify. It's not physical ; it's not measurable. But it's something you can sense. THEY know they have it; they feel it. They BELIEVE and expect it will carry them to victory, despite the naysayers.   What carries this team over favored opposition is intangible, but very, very real!!!

Do you sense it like I do????   This team has some major intangiBALLS working in its favor.  Never overlook the intangibles in any competitive event.  This team seems to have it... whatever the hell it is!!!!

Am I just imagining  things?

Watching this team on this postseason run...it is like all the stupid, bad luck, plays that happened over the past 20 years have culminated in one season where the ball DOES bounce their way.  It isn't luck, though.  Still, when I see a ball go off Hubbard's helmet to stop a sure TD. When I see Burrow JUST escape Jones and run 7 yards for a key first down.  When I see Evan crushing FGs from beyond 50 yards over and over again....it does seem to be a team of destiny.

One thing that I absolutely love watching is the high football IQ of the coaches.  (Who saw THAT at the beginning of the season?).  I love the passion and pure energy that EVERY PLAYER seems to bring on every snap.  

The bottom line:  They have great talent and they have a great game plan and it is just incredible to watch.
