It's not a slam dunk per se that the Cincinnati Bengals' quarterback situation will get any better with Joe Flacco under center. Cincinnati beat him head-to-head in the season opener, and the Cleveland Browns just benched him a week ago.
But something had to be done amid a three-game losing streak with the offense looking so putrid. It's evident that the Bengals locker room appreciates the organization's efforts to at least try to upgrade over Jake Browning. For all the hoopla about Flacco's arm strength, perhaps he can be an improvement over Browning via his conviction on short-area throws.
