    Bernards Fumble Question

    We won and that's all that matters. Highly intoxicated, but the end of this game was a joke. As everybody is basically saying how the Bengals gave this game away, when Bernard was knocked out and we clearly recovered the ball and are heading down field to score a TD, a whistle seemed to be blown way too late. Basically had the referee did what they have been doing and letting the play, play itself out, we would be up 22-0 at that point and the ending we clearly saw wouldn't have happened. Maybe I was too drunk and arn't thinking clearly, but it wasn't brought up once.

    Here we go baby!

    they blew the whistle early, actually. clock had stopped as he headed upfield. I was eyeballing it and mad that they had blown it dead. having said that, he mighta shazier mighta been down anyway. think he was touching Bernard as he recovered.

        Yes I agree. I think it should have been a TD. But we would not have had that ending. It somehow seems like justice the way Cincy was behaving all week and then during the game.
