I just feel like everyone is going to spend all week talking about Mahomes' ankle or Burrow being a Demigod or Chase against this young secondary or Lou Anarumo being a psychopath...and then in the end it's just going to Samaje Perine bludgeoning Bolton and Gay to death.

He was lucky to even have a chance late in that game. Cincy defense came up with another clutch turnover. Huge interception returned close to the goal line. Houston was in control of the game until that play. [Reply]
A dropped ball doesn't gvie Burrow a pass for 2 4th Q INTs.
A caught td pass gives Burrow the win, reducing complaints about interceptions to Pete level bitching about how you got the W.
Boyd catches the ball, they win, regardless of everything that happened prior.
We say all the time that Dee Ford ****ed us out of a Superbowl trip. Not too many talk about Mahomes getting blanked in the first half.
It comes down to did you have a chance to win regardless of everything that transpired to that point? Yes.
Did someone catastrophically fist their own team to keep them from capitalizing on that chance? Yes.
You can say team game, we all could've been better earlier, but the bottom line is that if Ford doesn't line up offside, Mahomes drags Bob Sutton to a title shot.
Boyd catches that football, Bengals win the game.
Dee lined up offside negating a game winning int. Boyd dropped the td that would have won the game, Chris Jones handed Matt Ryan the game after crushing their hopes with a sack. Toney dropped the pass to put us in fg range late against Detroit. We see it all the time. [Reply]
