Match Report: Cowboys 20 Bengals 19
For most of Sunday afternoon, the Bengals seemed set to charge past the rest of the AFC Wild Card race like roadrunner past a booby-trapped anvil, or, you know, like Rey Maualuga charging past an opposition running back.

I must confess, most of what I know of San Diego was learned from watching the movie Anchorman, and the rest of what I know came from a vacation my family took there when I was a teenager who fell in love with TGI Fridays. And, yes, while that might seem a little puzzling to Americans, if you’d ever ordered a sandwich in mid-90s England served on two pieces of plastic white bread around a slice of processed cheese, well, you’d go head over heels for potato skins filled with bacon and fried stuff covered in ranch-dressing too.

Out with the old, in with the new. The king is dead, long live the king. Etc, etc. In the end, short of a mid-game meteor strike or one of the teams trading for Tim Tebow, this was always going to be about the return of Carson Palmer to Paul Brown Stadium. A return that put the lie to his reported claim that he would never set foot in the place again, and that seemed somewhat at odds with his generous claims about the wonderfulness of Cincinnati fans and the “cool-looking” stadium.

Kansas City initially made me think of The Wizard of Oz, until I remembered that movie was actually set in Kansas, not Kansas City, and that, in fact, Kansas City might not even be in Kansas, it might be in Missouri. In fact, it turns out (ok, I Wikipedia-d) that there are two Kansas Citys. One of them is, in fact, in Kansas, the other, the one in question, is not. But it is near to Kansas, and they are separated by the Kansas River. Man, and you guys think pronouncing ‘Leicester’ is difficult. I also discovered that Kansas City would like it’s nickname to be “The Paris of the Plains” (you know, like the French capital) but that people instead insist on calling it just “KC” (you know, like the Sunshine Band). Anyway, I haven’t met many people from any of the Kansases (Kanses?) but from those that I have, I think we can all be grateful that most of the Chiefs’ so-called fans spent the game with paper bags over their heads. This may have been some sort of protest against the Chiefs 1-8 start, or it may simply be the customary apparel for people from Kansas. I don’t know. Wikipedia didn’t say.

First, a confession. I have lived in New York City for over six years and I have never seen the Bengals beat a New York team. To be fair, that’s partly because there aren’t any NFL teams in New York, just a couple of teams in New Jersey who are too embarrassed to admit it, the way people often pretend to be from the trendy neighborhood nearby, or that Justin Timberlake pretends to be an actor.

Match Report: Steelers 24 Bengals 17
As Offensive Coordinator Jay Gruden unrolled the scrap of yellowed paper at half time, his eyes scanned the words (created out of cut up newspaper headlines, of course) that spelled the end for the Cincinnati Bengals against the Pittsburgh Steelers: “JAY. I HAVE YOUR WIFE AND CHILDREN. IF YOU WANT TO SEE THEM ALIVE, YOU’LL BE TAKING ORDERS FROM ME. LOVE, BOB BRATKOWSKI.”
