Everyone thought the Bengals would cruise to an easy W against the Pats, both fan bases included. But we all saw what happened. Sounds cliche but it’s true, there are no gimmes in the NFL and this is exactly the type of game in which I can see the Bengals stealing a W.
The fact that your example illustrates this team being heavily favored and failing, instead of some other random team, hardly instils one with confidence for our chances. But, there are no guarantees in life, or the NFL for that matter, so you're right. It could happen. Here's hoping.
