Blame Raiders, Not Bengals, For Sunday's Upset

John R. Phythyon, Jr. is a displaced Ohioan. He was born in Columbus but grew up in Green Bay WI, where his father, a native of Dayton, taught him the proper love of Southern Ohio sports teams and The Ohio State University. By day, he's a sales and marketing director for his local theatre, while at night he moonlights as a freelance writer. He dreams of getting his big break as a feature columnist. In the meantime, he lives in Lawrence KS, where folks are amused by his Bengals passion.

It’s easy to look at the Raiders’ stunning 20-17 upset of the Bengals Sunday and say Cincinnati choked. It was a trap game, and the Bengals fell into it hard. After all, go the arguments, they lost three fumbles...
Really good article, your topics in this post are very interesting. Looking forward to reading more of your articles in the future.
I think he will get about 5-6 carries on Sunday. Can't wait to see him play his old team next month
