Bengals roar back, stun Seahawks in overtime

The Seahawks' inability to finish was the team's undoing yet again, with Seattle squandering a 17 point fourth quarter lead to lose in overtime to the Bengals.

For the first three quarters, the Seahawks controlled the ball, the clock and the game in Cincinnati, taking a 24-7 lead into the fourth quarter over the undefeated Bengals.

Unfortunately, over the final 15 minutes of regulation and overtime, the Bengals stole it right back, overcoming a 17 point fourth quarter lead to win 27-24.

So much went so well for so long Sunday, the loss - which drops the Seahawks to 2-3 - is especially disappointing.
