In the wake of starting the season 0-3, Cincinnati Bengals fans are going to hear a lot of opinions saying that this is a bad team, or that these are bad players. But the issue with making such a blunt statement is that this team and these players are only two fluky plays away from having been 2-1 at this point in the season.
In Seattle’s pouring rain, Randy Bullock missed a field goal that would’ve overcome the one-point deficit that ultimately decided the game. In Buffalo, a questionable holding penalty negated an incredible kickoff return by Darius Phillips.
