Levi Jones almost stopped Kiwanuka from getting to Carson, that one play. Levi Jones almost trained hard for this season. Levi Jones is almost a functional left tackle. Bob Bratkowski almost called the right plays in OT. Marvin Lewis almost used the clock and his one timeout remaining correctly.
The Bengals almost drafted Sedrick Ellis. The Bengals almost saved enough money to resign Housh.
