Radio call

So, I was on my way home, unable to watch the game and listening to Tunch and Hillgrove call the game. After the Bell touchdown to go up 35-21, Hillgrove mentioned how the Grain escalator was going down, taking Bengals fans down to the Ohio River. What was it? Over 6 minutes to go in the game, and they were packing it in! A few moments later, after the Bryant 94 yard TD, they asked Wolfley if he could see the grain elevator. Wolfley called it the "loss elevator" said anytime you come to Cincy, that's what you want to see, the loss elevator. lol

 

I have been to that Stadium when the Steelers have beat the Bengals, always great to see
the loss elevator.

 

I did think it was early for them to be leaving.

If we were losing by 14 points with 6 minutes to go, I'd still - even with this team - be expecting them to claw it back.

I suppose the injury to Dalton may also have been a factor, but the Bengals just fell apart in that last quarter. They had visibly given up.

 

I had to leave for basketball practice and was fortunate enough to get the Bengal radio feed to hear the 94 yard bomb... The color guy immediately said no, No, NO and then when the pass was completed it was radio silence for about 3 seconds before he said Bryant 94 yards for the touchdown. It sounded like someone just kicked his dog... It was awesome!

 

Nice
