Cincinnati Bengals’ OC Jay Gruden’s Game Plan Burns Redskins,Tickles Childhood Memories.

by Timzilla 09.26.2012

Due to my exhausting avocation as a masked crime-fighting, public menace type, I’d dozed off shortly before kickoff – awaking just in time to see a blurry No. 12 heaving a bomb. Huh? What Bengals’ QB wears that number, I thought? Damn, it’s rookie receiver Mohamed Sanu lined up in the shotgun. Taking a snap. Throwing it [...]
