Watched about 3 quarters and followed the rest of the game on the gameday thread. Here's my insight on today's performance.
Chill Out About the D: Colts came in with max protection and run a ton of short passes, something you're supposed to do when you're up against a godlike pass rush. The Defense made the plays when they mattered most and we saw something we haven't seen in a while: Clutch turnovers.
Bobby Hart is Ass, as Advertised: You know you're bad when Margus Hunt looks good against you.
Joe Mixion isn't as pivotal to the Offense as I thought, he's required When we hand the ball off the Mixon and let him do him, the offense moves. When we don't, our offense looks like it did the last two years.
Speaking of Mixion…
We can run the ball again!
Finally, we did something we haven't done in a long time: Find a way to win when the everything else insists on not letting the ball bounce our way once. A lot of BS calls and adversity. Good to see a Bengals team that can overcome it.
