The fact is that if the Bengals had started milking the clock on the second play of the drive way back in their own territory the crowd would have started booing.
Even when we had first and ten at the Pitt 11 it could have taken us 8 plays to get into the end zone. Even with 2 timeouts we had to be careful with the clock.
Yeah it was an extreme article, and I've been being overly emotional and reacting without thinking it through.
I do believe though that we could have worked the clock down a little at the end of the drive. As bad as the defense was playing we didn't need to give them the time to mount a drive.
