Why Joe Flacco trade should have Bengals fans (cautiously) optimistic

The Cincinnati Bengals just made a trade that many fans never thought they'd see, acquiring longtime AFC North rival quarterback Joe Flacco and a sixth-round draft pick from the Cleveland Browns for a 5th-rounder of their own.

This is not the type of move that Bengals' ownership has been known for and I think fans should be excited. This kind of move indicates that the front office is not yet ready to give up on the 2025 team.

Jake Browning has not been able to keep the team afloat as many of us had hoped he would.
