Descripción general del equipo
Los Bengals inician la temporada 2025 con una mentalidad ofensiva renovada y una continuidad renovada. Los receptores estrella Ja'Marr Chase y Tee Higgins firmaron extensiones de contrato récord, consolidando así las bases del ataque aéreo.
En defensa, Trey Hendrickson regresó con un contrato de un año por $30M, aportando liderazgo y retroceso al frente.
Además, la visión estratégica de la directora de estrategia, Elizabeth Blackburn, insinuó una dirección organizacional enérgica al entrar en 2025.
Análisis de la línea ofensiva
La línea ofensiva experimentó una importante reestructuración. Los Bengals contrataron al veterano Scott Peters como su nuevo entrenador de línea ofensiva en enero. Una posible alineación para la Semana 1 incluye a Orlando Brown Jr., Rokkio Dylan Fairchild, Ted Karras, Lucas Patrick y Amarius Mims.
Se espera que la incorporación de Dalton Risner agregue estabilidad en la guardia, mientras que el novato Jalen Rivers muestra promesa como un liniero suplente versátil.
A pesar de estas incorporaciones, los analistas aún clasifican a la línea ofensiva de Cincinnati entre las peores de la liga, con métricas de presión históricamente pobres.
Análisis de la línea defensiva
La principal jugada defensiva es retener a Trey Hendrickson, cuyo regreso se espera que impulse una presión al quarterback más formidable. Si bien las modificaciones en la línea defensiva no han sido noticia, su sola presencia aporta una fuerza estabilizadora al frente.
Temporada 2025 de la NFL
Semana 14
Bengals vs. Bills: Sunday, December 7 at 1:00 pm ET, 12:00 pm CST, 11:00 am MT, and 10:00 am PT
The Bengals snapped a long losing streak by defeating the Baltimore Ravens 32-14 on Thanksgiving night in Baltimore, improving to 4-8 and breathing life back into their playoff hopes.
The return of quarterback Joe Burrow paid off: despite missing much of the season, Burrow threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns, and avoided turnovers. Offense and defense came together for what the Bengals called the first all-around game we’ve played all season”, according to their head coach.
In Week 14, the Bengals face a daunting road test: they travel to play the Buffalo Bills, a team with one of the NFL’s top offenses and a formidable home crowd.
One of the Key storylines is that Joe Burrow is back and healthy; his mobility and familiarity with the offense give Cincinnati its best chance in weeks. The challenge: the Bengals’ defense remains fragile; star pass rusher Trey Hendrickson is listed as doubtful with a hip injury, which would sap some of the pass-rush pressure that helped create turnovers against the Ravens. On offense, wide receiver Tee Higgins remains in concussion protocol, so receivers and the offensive line must step up to give Burrow time and targets.
Semana 13
Baltimore Ravens vs Cincinnati Bengals: Thursday, November 27, at 1:00 PM ET, 12:00 PM CST, 11:00 AM MT, and 10:00 AM PT
In week 12, the Bengals hosted the New England Patriots and fell 26-20, extending their losing streak to four games and dropping their record to 3-8.
Looking ahead to Week 13, the Bengals face a critical and emotionally charged assignment: a Thanksgiving Day road game against the Baltimore Ravens, a fellow AFC North contender. According to recent reports, quarterback Joe Burrow is now expected to return this week, giving Cincinnati hope as they attempt to salvage the season.
Meanwhile, wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, who was suspended in Week 12 for a league discipline action, has issued a public apology, perhaps opening the door to his return.
The stakes are high for Cincinnati. A win would at least give them a pulse and a chance to enter December with some momentum. On offense, Burrow’s return could reignite chemistry and allow for a more balanced game plan. Defensively, the Bengals must urgently address the pass coverage and run-stopping weaknesses that have plagued them all season.
Semana 12
Cincinnati Bengals vs. New England Patriots: Sunday, November 23 at 1:00 pm ET, 12:00 pm CST, 11:00 am MT, and 10:00 am PT
In week 11, the Bengals were beaten decisively by the Pittsburgh Steelers, losing 34-12 on the road. Joe Flacco completed 23 of 40 passes for just 199 yards, one touchdown, and an interception, while the running game was stifled, and the defense could not generate enough stops. Cincinnati also entered the week shorthanded: Pro Bowl pass rusher Trey Hendrickson was inactive, per the team’s inactives report, weakening their pass-rush presence.
Looking ahead to Week 12, Cincinnati is set to host the New England Patriots, a matchup that could prove pivotal as the season progresses. But in a major blow, star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase has been suspended for the game following an incident in Week 11 where he allegedly spat on Steelers’ CB Jalen Ramsey. Without Chase, the Bengals offense loses its most explosive weapon, and the burden will fall even more heavily on Flacco and his other playmakers.
Taken together, Week 12 looms as a potential inflection point for Cincinnati. They need to prove they can win without Chase, stabilize defensively, and possibly make more aggressive roster decisions if they’re going to salvage their season.
Semana 11
Steelers vs. Bengals: Sunday, November 16 at 2:00 pm ET, 1:00 pm CST, 12:00 pm MT, and 11:00 am PT
Week 10 was a bye week for the Bengals, giving them a critical gap in their schedule right after a hard loss. One major piece of news: Joe Burrow has returned to practice after his Grade 3 turf-toe surgery, yet head coach Zac Taylor confirmed Burrow will not play this week.
Looking ahead to Week 11, the Bengals travel to face the Pittsburgh Steelers in an AFC North clash that looms large for Cincinnati’s playoff hopes. The matchup offers Cincinnati both an opportunity and a challenge: the club aims to rebound with the bye behind it and potentially with Burrow inching closer, but they’re still dealing with a poor defensive record, particularly the run defense, which is flagging.
If Cincinnati can show improved ball protection, limit explosive plays, and reignite their offense with Burrow’s return on the horizon, this game could mark a turning point. Conversely, another collapse might force deeper changes at the midway point of the season.
Semana 10
In Week 9, the Bengals suffered a heartbreaking 47-42 loss at home to the Chicago Bears. Quarterback Joe Flacco delivered a career day, throwing for 470 yards and four touchdowns, including a late 9-yard strike to Andrei Iosivas with 54 seconds remaining. Still, the Bengals’ defense collapsed once again—Chicago racked up 576 total yards and punched in a game-winning 58-yard touchdown as time expired.
Looking ahead to Week 10, the Bengals will enjoy their bye, providing a critical breather amid mounting issues.
Semana 9
Bengals vs. Bears: Sunday, November 2 at 2:00 pm ET, 1:00 pm CST, 12:00 pm MT, and 11:00 pm PT
In Week 8, the Bengals fell a heartbreaker at home, losing 39-38 to the New York Jets after blowing a 31-16 lead early in the fourth quarter. The Jets piled up 502 total yards, including 254 rushing yards, while the Bengals’ defense simply could not stop the late surge.
Looking ahead to Week 9, the Bengals host the Chicago Bears at Paycor Stadium. Despite the opponent’s visiting status and Cincinnati’s home turf, the Bengals enter under pressure to right the ship. Roster news includes the uniform combination for the game—Cincinnati will wear Black jerseys and Black pants with Orange socks, a look they have had favorable outcomes in historically. For the Bengals, the keys this week are clear: avoid another collapse like in Week 8, shore up the run defense, protect Flacco better, and stay disciplined in the fourth quarter.
Semana 8
Cincinnati Bengals vs. New York Jets: Sunday, October 26 at 1:00 pm ET, 12:00 pm CST, 11:00 am MT, and 10:00 am PT
In Week 7, the Bengals snapped a four-game skid with a dramatic 33-31 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. At the same time, injury and roster news kept bubbling: veteran pass rusher Trey Hendrickson remained sidelined with a hip injury and was listed as “day-to-day”. Meanwhile, speculation about the return of franchise QB Joe Burrow gained traction—reports suggest he could be back late in the season, although not yet for immediate games.
Looking ahead to Week 8, the Bengals host the New York Jets at home, an opportunity to build on their win and move closer to .500. They’re expected to lean into the momentum from Week 7 and the improved chemistry under Flacco, but the health of the defense—especially with Hendrickson’s status uncertain—and the continued protection and perfromance of the offense remain key questions.
Semana 7
Bengals vs. Steelers: Thursday, October 16 at 8:15 pm ET, 7:15 pm CST, 6:15 pm MT, and 5:15 pm PT
Cincinnati fell 27-18 at Green Bay, spoiling Joe Flacco’s Bengals debut. The packers built and maintained control, thanks in part to strong play from Josh Jacobs (93 rushing yards, two touchdowns) and a key 31-yard third-down conversion by rookie WR Matthew Golden late in the game.
The Bengals face a daunting road test in Week 7, traveling to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers on Thursday Night Football. Cincinnati’s recent QB shakeup is front and center: Flacco, now the starter, replaces Jake Browning after Browning’s struggles.
Flacco must generate offense against a respectable Steelers front, while Cincy’s receivers (including Chase, if healthy) will be tested by Pittsburgh’s corners. The Bengals’ offensive line upgrades (via Patrick’s return) might help in pass protection.
Semana 6
Bengals vs. Packers: Sunday, October 12 at 4:25 pm ET, 3:25 pm CST, 2:25 pm MT, and 1:25 pm PT.
The Bengals were beaten 37-24 by the Detroit Lions at home. After falling behind early, Cincinnati mounted a rally in the fourth quarter behind two long TD passes from Jake Browning to Ja’Marr Chase, but it was too little too late. Now Cincinnati will travel to Lambeau Field to face the Green Bay Packers in week 6. The Bengals will continue operating without Joe Burrow, and Questions loom over the Quarterback position; head coach Zac Taylor has not fully committed to Jake Browning for the start. Recently, Cincinnati acquired veteran Joe Flacco from the Browns, and he is expected to start at some points this week, possibly in this game.
Semana 5
Cincinnati Bengals vs. Detroit Lions: Sunday, October 5 at 4:25 pm ET, 3:25 pm CST, 2:25 pm MT, and 1:25 pm PT
Cincinnati returns home in Week 5 to face the Detroit Lions, who come in as heavy 10-point favorites. Without Burrow, Cincinnati must lean harder on its running game and hope Browning can stay poised under pressure. Key injuries will also factor in: Tight end Noah Fant is ruled out of this game due to a concussion, further depleting the passing options.
Detroit’s defense will test Cincinnati’s offensive line, and unless the Bengals can avoid turnovers and protect the football, they risk being overwhelmed. The Lions are expected to press the Bengals all over the field, and Cincinnati’s margin for error is razor-thin in this interconference showdown.
Semana 4
Bengals vs. Broncos: Monday, September 29 at 8:15 pm ET, 7:15 pm CST, 6:15 pm MT, and 5:15 pm PT at Empower Field.
Cincinnati now travels to Denver for a Monday Night Football matchup in Week 4 against the Broncos, who themselves are 1-2 and coming off close losses. The Bengals will be looking for redemption after their blowout loss, but will be doing so without Burrow, relying again on Browning under center. Denver’s offense under Bo Nix has shown big plays but also turnover issues; their passing game is strong in yardage and occasional explosiveness, but they’ve also had risky throws.Meanwhile, Cincinnati’s weaknesses from Minnesota—turnovers, weak run game, pass protection— remain concerns. So for the Bengals, Week 4 is a chance to bounce back: clean up the mistakes, lean more on the run if possible, protect Browning, and try to force the Broncos into mistakes. If they don’t, this could be another lopsided game.
Week 3 Roundup
The Bengals were smashed by the Minnesota Vikings 48-10, suffering their worst loss in franchise history. Backup QB Jake Browning, stepping in for the injured Joe Burrow, threw two interceptions and managed just one touchdown late in garbage time; the offense was plagued by five turnovers overall. Defensively, it was equally rough: the Vikings racked up 352 total yards and exploited Cincinnati for big plays in the run and pass games.
Also worth noting: Joe Burrow’s injury (Grade 3 turf toe) still looms large; his recovery time and return remain uncertain.
Semana 3
Bengals vs. Vikings: Domingo 21 de septiembre a la 1:00 p. m. ET, 12:00 p. m. CST, 11:00 a. m. MT y 10:00 a. m. PT en el US Bank Stadium.
Los Cincinnati Bengals llegan a la Semana 3 con un récord de 2-0, pero enfrentan un gran desafío tras perder a Joe Burrow durante al menos tres meses por una lesión en el césped que requirió cirugía. Jake Browning ahora lidera la ofensiva, con Mike White y Sean Clifford como refuerzos. Si bien Browning guió una victoria de remontada sobre los Jaguars en la Semana 2, enfrentará una prueba más difícil contra los Minnesota Vikings. Los Vikings también lidian con problemas con su mariscal de campo, ya que el novato JJ McCarthy está de baja y el veterano Carson Wentz podría ser titular, lo que crea un enfrentamiento impredecible. En teoría, Minnesota tiene una ligera ventaja en casa, pero con ambos equipos dependiendo de sus mariscales de campo suplentes, este partido podría convertirse en una batalla defensiva donde el juego terrestre y el margen de pérdidas de balón decidirán el resultado. Para Cincinnati, proteger a Browning, apoyarse en el ataque terrestre y mantener la defensa afinada será esencial si aspiran a mantenerse invictos.
Semana 2
Bengals vs. Jaguars: Domingo 14 de septiembre a la 1:00 p. m. ET, 12:00 p. m. CST, 11:00 a. m. MT y 10:00 a. m. PT en el Paycor Stadium.
Después de una actuación débil en la semana 1 por parte de la ofensiva (apenas 141 yardas totales y pobre producción terrestre), Burrow necesita ritmo y un mejor apoyo de su línea ofensiva y sus jugadores hábiles.
La Semana 2 de Cincinnati depende de si la ofensiva logra superar el óxido del primer día y apoyarse en una defensa que ya está en racha. Recibir a unos Jaguars que ganaron con físico y control del balón prepara el terreno para un partido reñido y de lucha.
Resumen de la semana 1
Los Cincinnati Bengals consiguieron una ajustada victoria por 17-16 sobre los Browns en el partido de la Semana 1.
La defensa de Cincinnati fue la estrella, forzando tres pérdidas de balón, incluyendo intercepciones de Jordan Battle y DJ Turner, y generando presión con Trey Hendrickson registrando una tasa de victorias de 41.7% en pases apresurados.
El momento clave para decidir el partido fue una intercepción tardía y un gol de campo fallado por los Browns.
Semana 1
Los Bengals debutarán como visitantes contra los Cleveland Browns, comenzando la temporada con una rivalidad crítica en la AFC Norte.
Su total de victorias O/U se ha fijado en 9,5 juegos, ligeramente por encima del resultado de 9-8 del año pasado.
Probabilidades de ganar la División y el Super Bowl
– Probabilidades de ganar la AFC Norte: +250 segunda mejor cuota detrás de Ravens
– Probabilidades de ganar el Super Bowl: +2000
Predicciones
– Récord general: 10-7 o 11-6, colocándolos segundos en la AFC Norte, probablemente detrás de los Ravens, pero a una distancia sorprendente.
– Posibilidades de playoffs: Ligeramente favorable, se espera que consigan un lugar en el comodín si las unidades clave rinden.
– Posibilidades del Super Bowl: Son una apuesta arriesgada pero están mejorando y están clasificados en un nivel medio entre los contendientes según los expertos.
En resumen, los Bengals llegan a 2025 con una ofensiva explosiva, anclada en receptores abiertos de élite, una línea ofensiva mejorada y refuerzos, y un frente defensivo estabilizado con el regreso de Hendrickson. Si bien las trincheras ofensivas siguen siendo una preocupación, el equipo está listo para competir.
