The Bengals Are Ready for Week 1, but Three BIG Questions Remain...
About this episode
James discusses the Cincinnati Bengals' readiness for Week 1 and addresses three significant questions regarding the team's performance and player contracts.
Week 1 is here, but there are still important questions about the Cincinnati Bengals... The Bengals upgraded the talent around the position this offseason, but will that be enough for the defense to improve right away? Then there's the contract situation. DJ Turner, Dax Hill and Chase Brown are among the Bengals eligible for extensions. Will anything happen before Sunday? And has this Bengals offense truly evolved? Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and company provide plenty of firepower, but can the offense take another step and show something different in 2026? James breaks down the three biggest questions still facing the Bengals ahead of their matchup vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
