The Cincinnati Bengals found a new way to break the hearts of their fans this afternoon with a 39-34 loss to the Buffalo Bills.
The Bengals had a prime opportunity to go into Orchard Park and grab a must-win to keep their playoff hopes alive, but failed in dramatic fashion.

Joe Burrow threw a devastating pick-six, followed by a high interception that turned the game around with five minutes remaining.
The defense had a chance to get the ball back, but failed to stop Josh Allen on a 3rd-and-15 scramble, thus bogging down the game.
As brutal as this loss was, there is one name that continues to show up in big moments, and that’s Mike Gesicki.
The Bengals tight end is out for quite some time with a pectoral injury but has played a vital role in the offense over the past few weeks.
The Bills struggled to keep Jamal Chase out of the game, and Gesicki finished with six catches for 86 yards and a touchdown.
It’s great to see 88 back on the field in this offense and he continues to show he’s a big part of this offense.
