What is your favorite Bengals play?

Boomer was the best at play action fakes.  I don't know if he was the one who invented sticking an empty hand in the RBs belly while hiding the ball on his hip but he was the one who perfected it.  And it was so effective because we had a dominating run game.  Number one in the league in '88 when Boomer won his MVP.

He's still the best I've ever seen......I don't know if being a lefty played into it any, but I can still see the cameras following the RB, only to have to scramble to cover the ball in the air.  Having JB and Ickey back there certainly made it all the more easier to sell.

Those were good times.....between Wyche and Bobby Bowden, my Saturdays and Sundays were never dull watching football.
