A controversial fumble ended the Bengals’ late-game hopes

After a hard-fought game, the Bengals got the ball back for one last chance. The team failed to stop the Seahawks after using their third timeout. Many may have thought that was the end of the game.

But, those diehard fans kept the game on. They kept hope alive, and it was paid off. The Bengals, thanks to an Alex Erickson fair catch, got the ball back on their own 25 with 21 seconds remaining.

Forced out of the pocket on first down, Dalton completed a six-yard pass to Tyler Eifert.
