Bleav in Bengals

Solomon Wilcots welcomes The Athletic’s Bengals insider Paul Dehner Jr. to break down Cincinnati’s 39-34 loss to Buffalo — a game that exposed the Bengals’ defensive struggles and the burden on Joe Burrow to play perfectly. The two discuss Burrow’s evolving mindset, how he’s learning to cope with repeated high-scoring losses, and why his calm perspective might mask deep competitive fire. Dehner explains the front office’s growing realization that the team’s defensive draft investments have failed, outlines the offseason priorities, and details the Trey Hendrickson situation — calling it a cautionary tale of fractured trust. They also touch on Tee Higgins’ concussion scare, the Jermaine Burton release, and what Cincinnati must fix to regain its championship trajectory. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
