Bengals Struggles Continue Falling to 3-7 | Joe Burrow's Return & Outlook for Rest of the Season
Description
The Cincinnati Bengals are sitting at 3-7 and the season is slipping away. In this episode of In The Trenches, Dave Lapham sits down with Bruce Kozerski to ask the hard questions. With the playoffs a long shot and Joe Burrow taking hits, is it time to think about 2026, or does the franchise quarterback need to keep playing?
Burrow’s Status: Bruce gives his take on whether a healthy Burrow should continue to play behind a struggling line.
Defensive Woes: Lap & Bruce breaks down the lack of physicality and the "shoulder tackling" epidemic plaguing the Bengals' defense.
O-Line Analysis: What is happening with the line during stunts and blitzes?
The Final Stretch: How the team finds motivation with a brutal remaining schedule (Ravens, Bills, Dolphins).
