And even if the Bengals took the FG, I would imagine the Ravens would drive for a TD to win at the end, as they seemed to move the ball at will when they were down and had four downs to play with.
There is a reason that oddsmakers had the Ravens above the Bengals. They are quite a good team. Bengals need to bring their A-game to win against the Ravens.
They might have, but we have been pretty good about allowing TDs this season, especially in the 2nd half. But we have been a bend don't break defense, which is bad when all the team needs is a FG. Honestly, I did not hate them going for it on 4th down, I was just upset by the playcalls. I really think if they planned on going for it on 4th down, then we needed to try and run the ball or go QB sneak. Execution was off on the trick play and shovel pass unfortunately.
It's easy to see the world in black and white. Grey? I don't know what to do with grey.
