I don't think we were a bad team, Bengals just had a bad game which went into their favor, and then moved on with a more humble approach.
Let me explain.
The Seahawks were struggling really bad, I think when we played them they were 2-2. Who were their 2 wins? The Bears and the Lions. 2-2 is not a horrible record, but they just did not look great. To the public though of course, they seemed "good". I remember after losing to us, then Carolina, them being 2-4, they were still in the top 10 in the power rankings. Which is obviously a joke.
To be honest, I was never expecting the comeback. Our offense was on a standstill, and we looked bad against a bad team!
I truly expected us to blow them out. So when we were struggling, that is when I truly knew, okay this is the same old Bengals. And, well 2015 was the same as any year, a fail.
Next year, though.
Our worst game (imo) was againt the Texans. This team's actual 'thorn in the side'...
