It’s time for some optimism around here.
Yes, these 2023 Cincinnati Bengals are greatly disappointing at the present, but it’s still early. And, with this slow start comes the masses pointing at their rebound last year, wherein they made it all the way to the AFC Championship Game once again.
And, while more examples of such turnarounds in NFL history and within the Paycor Stadium walls are sparse, there’s another example from this franchise’s yesteryear at which to point. Back when the legendary Paul Brown was still coaching the Bengals, they had a rough, rough start to the 1970 season.
