That's the big difference between this team and previous. Not just the talent, but we found ways to not trip over our own feet (or if we do, overcome it), whereas previous Bengals teams did everything to trip over them.
Let's be real, the 2nd half yesterday was an absolute meltdown. Our MVP-calibre QB threw a terrible pick which led the a clusterf**k of errors and bad luck. Very typical of the Bengals over time.
But this team go and pick up a forced fumble to win the game with their backs very much against the wall. We definitely were not favourites to win that game prior to that fumble. Threw away a guaranteed win, only to go and win the game again.
These guys are never out of it, and they're more likely to succeed in the face of adversity than to lose. First time I think I've been able to say that about the Bengals. We're insane in the clutch and I love it.
