Although the final result was less lopsided than the Vikings game a week prior, the Bengals' Monday Night loss in Denver somehow felt even more crushing, causing fans to lose their last additional bit of hope they didn't even know they still had.
At least the game against the Vikings was undone by five unlucky turnovers and an all-time defensive performance from Isaiah Rodgers; at least the offense was able to move the ball down the field, even if it scarcely resulted in actual points on the board.
The game against Denver was borderline unwatchable, especially on the offensive side of the ball.
