Bengals win UGLY, but a win is a win! | Defense Makes Winning Plays as Offense STRUGGLES
17-16 is a win! Despite Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, and the Bengals offense sputtering in the second half, the defense made enough plays and luck was on Cincinnati's side as they escape Cleveland with a win. Jake Liscow and James Rapien break down what we can actually take away from another weird Bengals Week 1, including expectations that the offense will figure it out, and encouraging signs from the run defense and pass rush against a poor Browns' offense. There's always room to improve, but it's nice to have to do it at 1-0 instead of 0-1!Join the Locked On Bengals Insider Community! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonbengalsFind and follow Locked On Bengals on your favorite podcast platforms:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/locked-on-bengals-daily-podcast-on-the-cincinnati-bengals/id1159723162Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7AObc0lh0WmQl5fJVgtajsGoogle Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vbG9ja2Vkb25iZW5nYWxz?sa=X&ved=0CAYQrrcFahcKEwio_sXtj8nuAhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAgStitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/locked-on-bengalsSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYTee up that trip!
