Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco has been everything the offense needed and more. Since joining the team, Flacco has thrown for 1,254 yards, 11 touchdowns, and just two interceptions while completely revitalizing the Bengals’ offense. James Rapien breaks down why the Bengals must bring Joe Flacco back in 2026, how he’s helped keep Cincinnati competitive without Joe Burrow, and why his leadership and calm presence make him the perfect veteran quarterback to keep in the room. You’ll also hear from Flacco himself on his mindset, his approach to the game, and what it means to play alongside Burrow as the team prepares for the remainder of the season.
