At halftime it felt like we should have been up 24 - 0.  Sitting at only 10 I felt the same way you did. In fact, our friend made a bet while we were up 10 - 0 for Cinci to win outright.

How does Burke have a job? Our special teams have been trash for 3 straight years. If we got a guy that has been missing kicks all night why keep putting in him a failing situation to kick from 40 yards out?

Thank you.  We should have won this game going away.   Shouldn't have come down to FGs.  Finish drives, bury a team when you have the chance.

I joked about it at half but Strong with a lead, any lead is a dangerous thing. He seems to start throttling too early and we can maintain rhythm on that side of the ball. It’s like he doesn’t know how to build/ maintain a lead and we can’t play from behind. What a terrible paradox

What concerned me about our final drive was that, while we were in field goal range, we were not letting the play clock run down.  In fact, we snapped the ball on one play with 22 seconds left on the play clock.

Missed kick notwithstanding, this would have put a lot more pressure on Cincy in order to get any kind of score.
