Cincinnati Bengals (Same Ole Bengals)

Coaches deserve all the critique they are going to get after this one. Late in the 4th quarter and driving with the ball, and then the Bengals put in a just-injured running back and hand it off to him for a loss of 2 yards. False start to lose another 5 yards on Orlando Brown, who was shocked to be called for something he had done countless times in Kansas City without penalty, and then throw a pick on an obvious passing down. That was where the Bengals could and should have put the game away in regulation.

As to overtime, there are no sufficient words. Just loser mentality to not even attempt to move the ball forward to make it at least an easier field goal attempt. Bad snap, and even worse hold. That miss was not on McPherson.

I knew it was an L the moment they did 2 straight handoffs up the middle after the turnover. No attempt to attack and make it a guaranteed win.

Butterfingers: Slow-motion replay of Bengals missed FG makes loss even more painful

The Cincinnati Bengals lost to the Baltimore Ravens by an eyelash. Or, if you're the Bengals holder, one quick bobble.

Before McPherson ever got a chance to kick, the Bengals holder fumbled the snap. While he was able to make amends prior to McPherson reaching the ball, he was clearly thrown off rhythm.



So close, yet so far. McPherson pulled the kick wide left, and the Ravens never looked back.

Holy fucking shit, I hadn't noticed our fucking rookie holder wears his goddamn wedding ring while trying to place the ball for the kicker.

Bolded part: Yeah... we know, dude! It's painful enough...
