My knee-jerk reaction to the tie in Cincinnati is one of hope and pride. Here's why: I picked us to actually lose this game today as I did not feel optimistic about playing a ticked-off and talented Bengal team. Yes, they did not have AJ Green but they are still very talented and to me Giovanni Bernard is the most important player on that offense. When he has a big game, they are real tough to beat. He had a big game and set us back on our heels. So I felt like I was playing with house-money in this one. But when we went down the field in that opening drive and looked dominant doing so, my internal optimist came out. But I still knew that we would have to play a pretty flawless game to win this one. Which we did not do.
