I can't imagine the meltdown we would have here if the Bengals melted down in the fashion the Browns did. Apparently, the Browns had a 99.9% chance of winning. And had the coaches reminded Nick Chubb to not go into the end zone, but just go down at the one, they would have won, because the Jets had no timeouts left. Then a missed extra point, a wide-open 66-yard touchdown, a recovered on-side kick. Extraordinary.
Yeah not going to lie, the Bengals have lost in some outrageous ways over the years. But that Browns game... holy.
As for the Bengals, yes 3 tight losses in a row. None of them such for the right reasons though. The Super Bowl... our offence just falls off a cliff the second we get that pick in the 3rd. We should win that game comfortably (enough) with one or two remotely decent drives after that point. Steelers... nail biter as we play like absolute trash for a half and still blow chance after chance to win that one. Cowboys.... one good drive all game.
Joe Flacco on his zimmerframe beating us would be a heck of a low, so fingers crossed we can come out on the right side this weekend. Basically in no loss territory for a while if we want to be a playoff team.
