AL MICHAELS was caught off guard when a fan's rant was picked up by Amazon mics.

The commentator and his partner Kirk Herbstreit both laughed after the remarks were heard on the broadcast.

Michael and Herbstreit were in the booth for Amazon Prime's broadcast of the Cincinnati Bengals against the Baltimore Ravens.

The Ravens came from behind to win a thriller 35-34 against their AFC North rival.

But they trailed by as many as 14 points in the third quarter on Thursday night.

With Baltimore 21-7 behind, cameras panned to a fan stood up in the crowd.

And he could be heard on the broadcast shouting at his team.

"Come on guys, you look like a**holes out here," the fan was heard as saying.

Michaels and Herbstreit both chuckled after the incident.

Thankfully for the disgruntled fan, Baltimore held on for a 35-34 victory.

Lamar Jackson threw for 290 yards and four touchdowns to lead them to a 7-3 record.

But fans were convinced that the end of the game was "scripted".

The Bengals went for a two-point conversion in the last minute to try and take the lead.

Quarterback Joe Burrow tried to find tight end Tanner Hudson on the two-point conversion.

But the pass was incomplete and the Bengals were left to rue a defeat.

Replays of the failed conversion showed Mike Gesicki and Hudson both being held by defenders.

But no flags were thrown on the play and the Ravens clung onto their lead.

Fans flooded social media to claim the ending must've been scripted.

"Release the script NFL ," one wrote.

"Rigged from the first move," another said.

While a third posted, "The NFL is so rigged."

The win took the Ravens to 7-3 while the Bengals fell to 4-6.
