In the wake of the Bengals’ 24-14 playoff loss to the Jets, our Bengals blog, Cincy Jungle, is not pulling any punches. They are disappointed. And mad.
Bengals Blog: ‘Heads Must Roll’
The Bengals managed to get the ball back with over 3 minutes to play in the game, but penalties (holding and an illegal shift) killed momentum and sapped the clock before Carson Palmer took his second sack of the game and faced a 4th and 22 to save the season. Carson held onto the ball until he got sacked for the second consecutive play, and the Jets had 3 knees to take to end the football game.
Penalties were truly devestating in this game. The game started out clean for the Bengals, but as penalties kicked in, so did ineptitude on the offensive side of the ball. Big plays were negated. Time was wasted. It was an abysmal performance by Carson Palmer, Ghayne Graham and the secondary. Overpursuit gave up 2 big runs and 3 huge receptions. Mark Sanchez made no mistakes. Carson did.
Heads must roll.
