The Cincinnati Bengals, based in Cincinnati, Ohio, are a professional football team competing in the National Football League (NFL) as part of the American Football Conference (AFC) North division. The team was founded by Paul Brown, a former Cleveland Browns head coach, in 1967. Brown led the Bengals as their head coach from 1968 until 1975. Since then, the Bengals have made a significant impact on the league, with several playoff appearances and two Super Bowl appearances, though they are still searching for their first title. They play their home games at Paycor Stadium, located in downtown Cincinnati. The Bengals joined the NFL in 1970 following the AFL-NFL merger, and like the other former AFL teams, were assigned to the AFC. With a loyal fan base and a strong roster, including standout quarterback Joe Burrow, the Bengals are a key contender in the AFC North.
