You’re right in general. They had no business beating us. I would argue that they’re actually a stronger team than that 2018 Patriots squad, though. That squad was basically Brady, Gronk, and a good OL surrounded by nothing special. Having that INT nullified by Dee Ford’s stupidity and then giving up three straight 3rd and long conversions in OT just really drove that dagger into my heart.
Then, of course, getting smashed in the Super Bowl, by Brady, further adding to his legacy (even though he didn’t do shit to earn it), cementing the fact that Mahomes will never be the GOAT, when we already beat them early on in the regular season.
Idk.. The Bengals last year seemed like one of those weird destiny type of teams. They came pretty close to knocking off a stacked Rams team
at home in the Super Bowl. It was a magical season for them.
