Both are pretty bad and just shocking. However which fan base has the most to be upset about?
Bengals - got the lead with under 2 minutes remaining - Burfict with an INT, giving us the ball in our own redzone. Steelers have all 3 TOs, so we can't run out the clock. The conventional wisdom is to run the ball 3 times, get the 1st down hopefully, but if not, make them burn all 3 TOs, and then kick a FG giving us a 4 point lead. Well Hill fumbles on first down, the Steelers don't have to take any TOs and need to now only go a part way down the field to win it. We get our chance to stop them on 4th down, but they convert. The next play a vicious hit, that drew a 15 yard penalty. While tending to the down player, a coach goes into our defenses huddle and causes another 15 yard penalty. Giving the Steelers a very easy FG to win the game.
Vikings - In the Redzone and down by 1 point. Seahawks no TOs. There is 26 seconds on the clock and the Vikings were unable to get the 1st down. All they need was a FG from 21 yards out, shorter than even an extra point. The kicker made 3 FGs throughout the game, but completely misses this one and the Seahawks wins on what can only be a completely unbelievable missed FG.
So which is it?
Bengals or Vikings?
Bengals. They had control of the game and the lead and gave it back.
