I'd like to see this over the last 5 years.
Obviously, it's somewhat misleading this year. Raiders, Bills, Chiefs, Browns, Rams, Browns and 49ers. All games where the Bengals had 3 TD leads...it's hard to expect much 4th quarter (or even 2nd half production).
I also think this is a game flow thing. Like last night...we started great. When you happen to get a big lead, don't pack it in against good teams (if you're up 3 TD's on a terrible team like Cleveland, okay). It's clear that the Bengals tried to nickel and dime a win last night...and it bit them.
