Completely overwhelmed? It was 7-6 at halftime lol. I'm sure the Bengals missed opportunities like they always do, but idk how you can say they dominated. That game was painful to watch actually.

Completely forgot about this game. Who wants to watch Ryan Lindley in a playoff game?

Az converts their break into a TD and cut it to 10-7.

The score by the offense doesn't look like it buoyed the Az defense!

The begging by the Carolina offense stopped their drive that was gashing Az up till then. They were begging for an encroachment call and instead were called for a false start!

After giving up a turnover on the last Az punt, Bersin declines to field the next punt and gives up a 52 yd, no return punt.

Ginn did it right, letting the punt go over his head at the 8, but the soggy ground caused it to die on the 2, and the Carlolina coverage guys were not the typical dummies and didn't knock it into the EZ.

I completely thought Lindley was about to pull an Orlovsky on that roll out.

Bersin with a great job catching that short punt from the 2.

What did Orlovsky do?

Newton saves a pick 6 with his speed! Why didn't the defender knock him down in the pocket as soon as he saw the INT?

Best running play of the day by Az to the 1.

Too much effort from the 1 causes a fumble. Or maybe not! Broke the plane before it was knocked loose, but was the knee down by that time?

Az survives the 3 big plays by Cam on their 1st drive of the 2nd half, giving up no points, but taking over on the 8. Ginn fair catches this one right on the decision line.

What's the deal with Arizona's punter? Is his foot broken or something?

I don't think intent to throw forward matters does it? It does according to Ed H., but that is a stupid rule.

I've always hated that rule. But, been that way forever. Always fucks the defense when they cause a simultaneous fumble and incompletion by hitting the QB arm...ball goes backwards, so it shouldn't matter if it's incomplete of fumble, regardless it's a backwards pass. Just an asinine rule that I will never be convinced is correct lol

Brief hope for Az quashed quickly on the interception on 1st and goal from the 8!

There is no way Ryan Lindley is one of the top 50 quarterbacks in the world. Or 100. Or probably 500.

I think Ryan Lindley would be 4th string at Ohio State right now.
