The Bengals have scored fifty-one (51) points in the 4th quarter this season - Last in the NFL
The Bengals have scored four (4) TD's in the 4th quarter this season.
Two (2) of those 4th quarter TD's were in the blowout loss to Dallas.
Nine (9) points scored in the 4th quarter at Paul Brown Stadium.
Zero (0) 4th quarter TD's at Paul Brown Stadium.
And this isn't some dark cloud following this team this season. It's a recurrent theme with ML lead teams over the years.
I think it was 2 years ago but we were deep into the season, game 12 ? And we were the worst 3rd quarter scoring team in the NFL. At one point we had like 3 points in 4 or 5 combined 3rd quarters in a row.
We're averaging 4.1 second half points in 7 combined playoff losses. Think about that for a minute, barley over a FG !!!
We can't adjust to the oppositions adjustments. If plan A fails we're screwed.
