LIVE BLOG: Chiefs v Bengals 4th Quarter

Fourth Quarter

14:15

The Chiefs have not cross midfield since William Wallace was six years old. They finally do, but can’t do anything with it as the turn the ball over on downs.

You know those Bud Light commercials where the guy is writing in thin air maps and such? I really wish I could do that. As a matter of fact, I wish I could do most things that happen in beer commercials.

13:35

RAMS UPDATE: A field goal pushes the Rams to within a touchdown. Still plenty of time life.

13:12

Cedric Benson could be an interesting fantasy option next season. Carson Palmer will be back but it can be assumed he won’t be fully back, meaning they will rely on the run a little more than usual. The way Benson has looked the last couple of weeks he might have a decent season in 2009. Wouldn’t be interesting if he gets traded for T.J. Houshmandzadeh but this time Benson has the crazy good season and T.J. sucks?

10:55

The Chiefs finally get a sack!!! Of course, it was a terrible sack. Boone had him first, but completely whiffed on the tackle. Babin ended up getting him after Fitzpatrick couldn’t get around his own lineman.

10:07

Robinson didn’t fumble, but he might as well have… Chiefs ball on the 7ish.

9:32

Tyler Thigpen can’t throw the deep ball. He under-threw Bradley badly, but the DB mistimed his jump. This gave Bradley a chance to catch the ball but he couldn’t hold onto it.

Tony Gonzalez followed that play up with his second catch of the drive. 9 more catches….

8:34

Bowe with another catch. He needs 40 more yards to get 1000. I predict he’ll get 35.

8:13

Thigpen fumbles the handoff, Bengals recover. Thigpen has looked terrible in this game, much the same way he looked in the Falcons game earlier this season.

He is 13-27 for 106 yards.

7:28

DERRICK JOHNSON JUST LIT UP CEDRIC BENSON!!!! How is Benson not dead??????????

6:40

Fourth Most Accurate Kicker In NFL History Shane Graham hits another field goal to extend the lead to 16-0, despite the fact that boring announcer guy said 17-0.

6:15

RAMS UPDATE: Rams score somehow, I’m too lazy to look it up – probably was Steven Jackson, and tie the game at 24. Don’t get too excited because, one, it is the Rams and, two, there is still 13 minutes left in the game.

The Lions game is still tied at 14. I kind of want that game to end in a tie now. 0-15-1. Would that be worse that 0-16?

5:57

Technical difficulties by CBS has forced to Plax myself. It really hurts. What was that guy thinking?

4:44

Mark Bradley was just called for a false start. Ugh.

4:08

Dwayne Bowe!!! Holy crap what a catch!!! I hope they challenge it, because I think he scored. Nice throw by Thigpen too. Could have used more of those…

On the previous play, Gonzalez caught a pass. 8 more catches…

Bowe has 10 catches for 103 yards. That puts him over 1000 yards. Statistically, Bowe is special. Now if he can just make those clutch catches and add some consistency…

Still waiting on the replay…























Play stands. Ball placed at the one. Sucks for Bowe. Got his grand (1000 yards) though.

3:15

Chiefs have failed on three straight attempts to get into the endzone from the one. Play include: a fade to TG, LJ getting stuffed for no gain, a terrible pass to LJ.

On fourth down, they throw a fade to Bowe for a touchdown, but Bowe is called for offensive pass interference (tough call).

On fourth and goal part two, the Bengals are call for pass interference in the endzone. Ugly football.

3:00

On the second first and goal, LJ is tackled for a loss on a sweep-type play.

On second down, the Thigpen finally hits TG for the touchdown. 7 more catches…

Chiefs fail to convert the two-point conversion.

2:20

Green Bay is up on the Lions by 10 with 8 minutes left. 0-16 here we come!

STL and ATL are still tied, but the Rams have a 3rd and 9 on the Falcons 10 with 7 minutes left.

2:18

Leon Hall does not pull a Dwayne Bowe and holds onto the onside kick. One first down and the game is over. 2-14. Geez…

2:14

DeAngelo Williams: 163

Chiefs Rushing: 31

2:00

Benson runs for a first down, which should effectively end the game.

RAMS UPDATE: Rams hit a field goal to go up 27-24. I still think the Falcons will win the game.

Detroit scores, don’t know how, to get within 3 points of Green Bay.

1:30

Benson breaks 100 yards, which is good news for my fantasy team. Bad news for the Chiefs. The Chiefs have lost 23 of their last 25 games. Ouch.

:30

Fitzpatrick takes a knee. Bengals win. Chiefs season is done. 2-14. Terrible. Well, I guess we could be the Lions…

UPDATES: Within seconds of each other, the Packers and Falcons each score touchdowns. The Lions and Rams suck.
