5 Ups & 3 Downs From NFL 2019 Live At Wembley

3. Bengals’ Fans Were Vocal

Anyone who attended this "home" game for the LA Rams thinking it'd actually be the #RamsHouse was a fool.

UK fans don't get a lot of this stuff, so they were out in force to represent other teams as best they could. The Bengals support was every bit as vocal, which was nice; outside the stadium, more than one pocket could be seen decked out head to toe in Cincinnati garb, including hats, t-shirts, socks (!?), printed trousers and even onesies.

It was a tapestry of black and orange at times, and that gave the crowd a unique, colourful flavour. It's just a pity those people weren't properly represented by the Rams-centric vibe inside Wembley when the game got going. Provided you could ignore the LA branding everywhere and open your ears, you could tell the Bengals were out in force.

They cheered like their lives depended on it when QB Andy Dalton connected with a pass, and they couldn't hide their delight when the Bengals temporarily tied the game at 10-10.
