I thought CIncy (had em -8) would overcome the poor right side of the OL like last yr, but Balty clearly outplayed them, much more yards, running and even passing, more FDs, etc, one monumental freak play changed the game.
If that third OL, the LT, is out too, I cannot see them making it much further, if they make it to play KC, not looking good.
We shall see.

The OLine injuries piling up are concerning
Baltimore played a great game, no doubt. But Bengals stepped up and made plays when they had to
I thought Ravens wanted to muck the game up and they did so. Lot of of extra hitting, chippy ness, and refs let it go for most part.
Huntley also made some incredible plays…turning 5-10 yard losses into longer plays. Very frustrating to watch
But Bengals found a way which is all that matters. Just like the Bills, who also didn’t play well
10,000 to 1 shot of flipping a TD against you to for you...
Then Bengals defense gets a stop.
Burrow with a chance to ice it goes 3 and out.
It's just hilarious to hear revisionist history. Bengals won because of dumb luck. It happens. Congrats to them. See if they take advantage of it---but i believe they get stomped by Bills.
Didn't help Vikings in the next round when that had that miracle win against Saints with Diggs.

A couple of freak losses was part of the could've been. Think it was 98 season maybe his 3rd MVP year, they got beat by the Owen's catch on last play of game. Play was set up with a horrific no call on Rice with a reception. No replay at that time. Favre was brilliant that day. Also the 4th and 26 pass by McNabb that Packers didn't defend that would've ended that game. I thought that was a great team that was going to the SB.
I had won the RX/Skybook SB contest that year and thought I would see the Packers in SB.
Any given Sunday boys Bengals capable of beating any team, that’s the parody of the NFL and what makes this sport so exciting.
My bad it sounds the same but it’s actually parity not parody for those who care
Speaking of the 4th and 26 game.
What i remember even more than 4th and 26 is 4th and inches at around philly's 40 yard line. This is what the Packers had to win the game.
Favre ran and came up less than a yard short of the 1st down to basically seal it. But "old school" way of thinking was to punt instead of going for it and winning the game. There is 0 chance a team punts in that situation now. Huge huge mistake to punt there---had also been running over philly all day.
In sports, parity is when participating teams have roughly equivalent levels of talent. In such a league, the "best" team is not significantly better than the "worst" team. This leads to more competitive contests where the winner cannot be easily predicted. The opposite condition, which could be considered "disparity" between teams, is a condition where the elite teams are so much more talented that the lesser teams are hopelessly outmatched.
from Wiki, same in the dictionary… it’s parity not parody, for all of us in the future so we sound smarter than everyone else
