When Joe Burrow tore a ligament in his wrist in Week 11, all hope for a postseason seemed lost in the Queen City. In Week 12, the Cincinnati Bengals lost to another division rival (Steelers) with poor play on both sides of the ball. Then in Week 13, Jake Browning emerged with an incredible game. He finished the game 32-of-37 for 354 yards with a touchdown and zero turnovers for a 115.5 passer rating and scored a rushing touchdown and a win. The NFL world and Bengals fandom exploded.

The Cincinnati Bengals have been graced with four head coaches since the year 2000. Some teams cycle through coaches like they’re going out of style. It took a long time for the Brown family to find their coach, but when they do, they are loyal to a fault. Before Marvin Lewis, the longest tenure as a Bengals coach was Sam Wyche who coached the team for eight seasons. Most other coaches didn’t last five seasons. Finding stability in the head coach position is essential to success.

It wasn't pretty but the Cincinnati Bengals pulled out the win against the gum-chomping Seattle Seahawks. Cincy moves to .500 after a dismal start to the 2023 season. Unfortunately, they're still sitting at the bottom of the AFC North. They received no help from Baltimore and Cleveland who both won on Sunday while Pittsburgh was on the bye. Burrow is playing much better now than he did in Week 1. It's clear that Burrow's vague calf injury is getting better week by week.

The Cincinnati Bengals fell 24-3 to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday afternoon in a game that Bengals fans are hoping to forget about quickly. Monday morning is prime time to overreact to everything that happened during the previous day of wall-to-wall NFL football. It's even better when it is Week 1. A one-game sample size with players that could be rusty or on new teams or rookies leads to weird outcomes. These wild outcomes will cause major overreactions, which is the purpose of this post.

A one-hit wonder is usually synonymous with bands who had one hit song and were never heard from again. But, that term can be used for any profession. I’m sure there are one-hit-wonder plumbers who had a good year but never reached those heights again. In the NFL this term describes a player who has an incredible season, usually a pro-bowl caliber season. After this, every pundit calls them the next so-and-so [insert great player at that given position].

The Cincinnati Bengals have gone through multiple uniform changes throughout the years. Not as many as other teams, likely because those Orange and Black stripes look too good to deviate from. Since the team's formation in 1968, they have had six significant changes in their uniforms with a minor alteration on their sixth incantation. Currently, teams are allowed one alternative jersey with their home and away jerseys. Beginning with last season teams were allowed to use an alternate helmet.

Sports teams’ logos are as much of an identity of the team as the city they reside in or the players who dawn the jerseys. Logos are so iconic that even non-sports fans are able to identify what team they belong to. The Cincinnati Bengals' logos have never been that, but one could argue it’s probably because they’ve spent much of their existence in a kind of obscurity. Maybe now that Joe Burrow has helped make them relevant again, people could recognize the tiger-striped B.
