Byner's fumble worse than Hill's?

After the Hill fumble we were still in great shape to win the game.  I don't know a single person who automatically assumed we would lose after that fumble.  Roethlisberger was crippled and the Steelers were on their own 9 yard line with just a little over a minute to play.

In all fairness I said "It wouldn't surprise me if someone, probably Burfict, got a 15-yard penalty to put them in game-winning FG range" but I'm one of the notable pessimists in these parts.

I also recalled our loss to the Cardinals earlier in the year being pretty similar.

1. we don't capitalize on our offensive possession
2. opponents march down the field hitting obvious targets
3. 15 yard penalty to set up game-winning FG
4. game winning FG is good
5. stunned Bengals fans
