TAMPA, Fla. -- As they woke up Monday morning, the Cincinnati Bengals had good reason to smile.

At long last, they have a little breathing room. That once immensely tight race with the rest of the AFC North now shows a little distance between the Bengals and the rest of the pack.

That's because the Bengals were the only one of the four teams to win Sunday, narrowly escaping with a 14-13 road victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They probably should not have won the game, but because of a series of bizarre events, and some observant assistant coaches and players, they did.

In the locker room after the game some players learned through their smartphones and social media that every other AFC North team had lost, allowing them to widen their division.

There are games the ravens should have lost. It doesn't lessen the win loss record.
