Ball security was questionable at best. AJ Green tipped two Dalton passes into interceptions and fumbled a third ball later. He too came up limping. The turnover differential was -2.
Still, the Bengals won against Buffalo, a team with a winning record.
In the rain.
With no run game.
With Andy Dalton throwing two picks.
With two personal fouls.
With Marvin Lewis in charge.
The Cincinnati Bengals finally won an ugly game where very little went right. Only the best teams do this.
I think this is a valid point. I don't think the Bengals are a good team or a great team by any means...but they won. In many years this is the exact type of game they'd lose.
With that said...we've yet to see this team play good for an entire game other than Cleveland. If they have aspirations of playoffs...we'll need to see that at some point.
The Steelers look worse on the field than their roster should. We actually can win the division...but we need to beat them in 2 weeks. To beat them...we'll need to play a complete game.
