Game Within The Game: How Bengals Are Taking Cup Of Joe To Go At Lambeau

When the Bengals bus into storied, stately, and symbolic Lambeau Field for Sunday’s game (4:25-p.m.-Cincinnati’s Local 12) in Green Bay, they’ll twist and turn through a series of neighborhoods.

The Bengals are packing up their 3-game losing streak and their certified pre-owned quarterback and heading to Lambeau Field for a game that their own mothers probably don’t think they can win. Well, I am no man’s mother.

Here is how they can win on Sunday.

Get Flacco Up to Speed

40-year-old Joe Flacco needs to push the Wedding Crashers and Anchorman quotes to the side of his brain and learn what he needs to know to run the Bengals offense in a hurry.

If I were Zac Taylor, I would sit down with Flacco and ask him about...

It can make it a little more difficult for you to find the Bengals news you want, whether it be from Cincy Jungle or Bengals websites run by ‘real’ people, not AI-generated content with no heart or soul in it and that lacks the passion Bengals fans have for their favorite team and want to see in the content they read.

The Cincinnati Bengals will head to Lambeau Field this week to take on the Green Bay Packers. Who will have to step their game up in order to give the Bengals any hope of pulling off the upset?

TJ Slaton

Slaton spent his first four seasons playing for the Packers. He will be returning to face the team that drafted him this week.

Slaton has been a solid addition to the team as a run defender. He is never going to give much as a pass rusher. This week, he will be tasked with trying to slow down Josh...

Let’s first take a look at some of the All-22 on the defensive side of the ball from the Cincinnati Bengals’ 37-24 defeat to the Detroit Lions.

The defense feels like it is showing more signs of life than the offense, by a wide margin. Some young guys are flashing, and there hasn’t been any quit in those guys, no matter how many times Jake Browning turns the ball over.

Early in the game, the Bengals were dropping defensive ends into coverage at a high rate. The results were about as one should expect. Sam LaPorta was having a field...

Matt and Willie Know Ball, but even we did not see this one coming.

The Bengals made a big splash by adding a veteran quarterback who knows the AFC North as well as anyone.

• Why did the Bengals decide to add Flacco?
• What will the offense look like with Flacco under center?
• Should this rest our expectations for this season?

Flacco was once a Super Bowl MVP, but has become a journeyman bridge quarterback who produces for teams just to be replaced. Now he has crossed over into full-on mercenary mode, as he comes in to save...

The Cincinnati Bengals have been having issues with their offensive line since Joe Burrow got to Cincinnati in the 2020 season. This isn’t news to any Bengals fan, but this isn’t just a problem in the Zac Taylor era. The Bengals have been struggling to protect quarterbacks for the better part of a decade.

When appearing on the Pat McAfee Show on Monday, former Bengals offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth revealed a shocking stat about the Bengals’ lack of success evaluating and retaining offensive line talent.

Yes, you heard that right. Since 2011, the Bengals have not drafted an offensive lineman...

The Bengals appear to be moving forward with Jalen Rivers at right guard. I feel like his performance the past two weeks has merited that. Could the Bengals have two long-term pieces for the offensive line?

As always, it is important to take PFF grades with a grain of salt. Jalen Rivers graded out with a 56.1. His pass blocking grade was even lower, coming in at 45.1. When watching his tape, I don’t think it was anywhere close to what that grade would indicate.

Rivers looked patient, stout in pass protection for most of his snaps, and once again...

The Cincinnati Bengals (2-3) said enough is enough and decided to plug the holes on the sinking ship that is their pathetic offense.

The question is, did they plug them with putty or a plastic bag?

In other words, is Joe Flacco actually going to help the team win more games than Jake Browning could have done?

That remains to be seen.

But for now, we can look at some stats to get an idea of what to expect when Flacco likely takes the field as the starter this Sunday against the Green Bay Packers (2-1).

This year, both QBs...

The Cincinnati Bengals returned to Paycor Stadium in Week 5 looking to build momentum and remind the league that they’re still contenders in the AFC. Instead, they left their home crowd frustrated and searching for answers after a 31–20 loss to the Detroit Lions — a game that featured bright moments, familiar frustrations, and some downright ugly football that left the Bengals at 2–3 and reeling for direction.

Let’s break it all down.

The Good

Ja’Marr Chase Shines and the Defense Fights

Even in a deflating loss, Ja’Marr Chase reminded everyone why he’s among the NFL’s elite. The star...

It’s been a whirlwind beginning of the week for the Cincinnati Bengals. After a disheartening home loss at the hands of the Lions (their third straight defeat), the team reassessed their roster status.

Backup quarterback Jake Browning has struggled since taking over in the second half of Week 2 for Joe Burrow, throwing eight interceptions in three and a half games of play. With the high amount of turnovers and the team hitting a major losing streak, the Bengals made a seemingly-unlikely move to bring in veteran signal-caller, Joe Flacco.

Can Flacco, a guy with extensive AFC North experience, steady...
