Talk about a loss that hurts … literally.
Joe Burrow had driven the Cincinnati Bengals into position for a game-tying field goal Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Randy Bullock had already nailed a 50-yarder and one from 43. All that stood between Cincy and overtime was a 31-yard field goal.
Some unreal endings today. First in Detroit and now in Cincinnati. Randy Bullock missed a 31-yard game-tying FG and the #Chargers hold on to win 16-13. pic.twitter.com/EVif8xocNH

Bullock’s kick sailed to the right, though, and the veteran kicker could barely walk off the field. He didn’t appear to be hit but he clutched at his calf as he attempted to make it to the sideline.
Final score: LA Chargers 16 Cincinnati Bengals 13.
Oh, the pain.
