Fred mentioned it in his post, but the real turning point I think was the last minute of the Steelers game. The Bengals scored to take the lead with just over a minute left, and were possibly on their way to 5-1 while slaying their nemesis. Of course, what I think most everyone feared turned out to be right- the Bengals left too much time on the clock. I think 2018 would have been a playoff year if they win that game, barring unforeseen injuries thereafter.
