Author: Locked On Podcast Network, James Rapien, Jake Liscow August 17, 2026 Duration: 1:04:53
Joe Burrow and the Bengals' offense went under center on several plays Thursday night in their Preseason opener. There were some bright moments, and it provides hope that this can become part of their offense in 2026. Alex Frank, Coach Art Valero, and FOX19 Sports Director Joe Danneman discuss what they saw from Joe Burrow and the Bengals' offense on Thursday night and what we can expect going forward this week in the joint practice between the Bengals and Chicago Bears. The Bengals' secondary flashed on Thursday when Jordan Battle picked off a pass, and D.J. Ivey showed tremendous improvement. What is this group's ceiling? It's not just Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight Jr. entering crucial second seasons. Alex, Coach, and Joe take stock in all of the Bengals 2025 Draft picks and where they stand going into their second seasons. One player who quietly had a great 2025 season and looks great to start the season is Evan McPherson. Alex, Coach, and Joe discuss why this is the Money Mac Bengals fans fell in love with in 2021.
