Summary

Regardless of the Bengals' record right now, having Joe Burrow back makes it fun to watch them play. The crazy thing is... they still have more than a realistic chance of they can win out and win the AFC North. Alex Frank, Mike Santagana, and Art Valero discuss how serious we should be taking the Bengals' playoff prospects going into December. Another things that's fun to watch with the Bengals right now is their young defense making strides. Which players stand out the most? Can they continue to build on solid performances over the last three weeks? The Bengals' offensive line allowed just one sack Thanksgiving Night in Baltimore. Are we ready to say their offensive line is good? Art explains what he saw in Baltimore, while Mike explains how much Joe Flacco had to do with the offensive line's progress this season.
