Cincinnati Bengals…Still Gunning for a Super Bowl Win
In 1937, the Cincinnati Bengals became part of the first American Football League. After a couple of seasons and some rocky years for the league, both the AFL and the Bengals ceased to exist and the United States entered into World War II. In 1967, 26 years after football in Cincinnati had ended, another team was created as part of the new American Football League and named the Bengals.
The AFL-NFL merger brought the Cincinnati Bengals into what is now the only American professional football league, the NFL. The team went to the playoffs three times in the seventies but could not seem to advance to the Super Bowl until the eighties, when they faced the 49ers twice, losing both games. A fourteen season losing streak followed only to end in 2005, when the Bengals advanced once again to the playoffs but not the Super Bowl.
The Cincinnati Bengals are known for their ‘no-huddle” offense approach, often readying themselves for the next play in the game within just a few seconds and putting the defense off balance for the start of the next play. This caused the NFL to institute new rules regulating this sort of offense, and even earned the team a visit from the NFL officials less than two hours before the AFC title game in 1988.
The NFL threatened to penalize the Bengals fifteen yards every time they used the “no-huddle” offense that they had been practicing all week. Of course, the Bengals responded that they would use the strategy anyway and the officials would have to explain it to the public. The Bengals as a result were not flagged once for their offensive maneuver.
The original home of the Cincinnati Bengals was Riverfront Stadium, which they shared with the town’s baseball team as well. The stadium had seats for more than 59,000 football fans, and remained the home of the Bengals until 2000, when their new stadium was built.
Despite attempts to buy naming rights to the new stadium, the owner of the Bengals, Mike Brown, named the stadium after his father to honor the man who had founded the team so many years ago. Paul Brown Stadium is often referred to by its nickname, “The Jungle” which fans carried over from the old stadium. The Jungle has seats for more than 65,000 people.
The Cincinnati Bengals are one of only five teams in the NFL without a general manager. Instead, owner Mike Brown fulfills that role within the franchise but without the title. Despite a rocky history, the Bengals have become a team to watch, giving fans plenty of excitement and entertainment at each game.
