The Cincinnati Bengals rolled the dice and came up smelling great on a fourth-down gamble in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Sam Hubbard recovered a fumble to set up Cincinnati at the KC 45.
Faced with a fourth-and-6 on the first play of the fourth quarter, Joe Burrow went deep into double coverage and looked for former LSU teammate Ja’Marr Chase.
