Marvin Lewis News Conference Transcript - 10/15
“After going through everything again last night and this morning, we had opportunities in the game. The biggest thing is that we need to be more consistent, whether on offense to keep drives going or doing the right things on defense. (We need to) keep managing the football game as best as we can. Defensively, third downs were once again critical. The offense had a good day on third down and should’ve had two more conversions, which makes a difference in the game. Those are areas that we still have to do a better job of by understanding the situation, execution and making sure everyone gets their job done.”
Quick Hits: Austin Won't Second Guess Gamble
On Sunday the Bengals led the Steelers, 21-20, and Pittsburgh had the ball on the Bengals 31 with 15 seconds left. Plenty of time to run a few plays that would give Chris Boswell a chip-shot field goal for a guy that has never missed against the Bengals on 22 field-goal attempts. Austin, Cincy’s first-year defensive coordinator, knew it was now or never. Boswell is 0-for-3 from beyond 40 yards this season. If the Steelers ran, an all-out blitz would stop it. If they passed, an all-out blitz would get the pressure they had lacked all day. If quarterback Ben Roethlisberger went with a quick flip in the middle of the field, it could go all the way.

2018 Cincinnati Bengals notes: Marvin Lewis, NFL disagree on OPI
Opinions differ about wideout Antonio Brown’s game-winning touchdown Sunday in the final minute of the Steelers 28-21 win against the Bengals.

NFL Week 7 early odds: Chiefs favored big over Bengals team that can't win on Sunday nights
Although most people are well aware of the fact that the Bengals haven't been able to win in the playoffs under Marvin Lewis, things are almost as bad for the team in Sunday night games. Since NBC took over the Sunday night package in 2006, the Bengals have played a total of seven games, and it's been ugly: They've gone 0-7 straight-up and 1-6 against the spread (ATS). Ouch.
