The worst part about the game was weaving our way out of the masses. That was a hell of a game, and I was proud to witness Gradkowski's 'coming of age' in this league. He's still green, but he's learning. He's adjusting, and I like the kid. That last drive was tremendous. I leaned over and told my daughter when the Bengals were lining up for that last kick, "if they make this, you better call the paramedics. I'm going to have a heart attack."
It's only one win, but it's an important win. 1-4 is better than 0-5. If they come out flat next week against the Eagles; at least they know what can happen when they come together as a team. It was a great win today! I'm not predicting any future outcomes this season. 1-4 can help to turn a season around, but there are many tough bumps in the road ahead for this team. Whatever happens, I like what I see of this young QB!
