Dave Lapham Postgame Call With Dave Berk | Cincinnati Bengals Eliminated From Playoffs

The Cincinnati Bengals entered their contest against the Kansas City Chiefs with one mission. Win their ninth game of the season and keep their playoff hopes alive for another week.

Despite playing the back half of the season without Joe Burrow, the play of Jake Browning has kept playoff hopes alive. That came crashing down after a solid start in the first half that saw the Bengals keeping Patrick Mahomes in check and putting up three scores to hold a 17-7 advantage midway through the second quarter.

However, everyone has learned to refrain from counting out an Andy Reid squad with Mahomes behind center. While the Bengals held the Chiefs to only one touchdown in the first quarter of play, Mahomes put the Chiefs in position to get six field goals from Harrison Butker on their way to a 25-17 victory that sealed the Bengals fate for the season.

After calling the action on the First Star Logistics Bengals Radio Network, Dave Lapham joined Dave Berk for a postgame call on In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, to give a quick breakdown of what happened during the game that made the difference between a win and a loss.
