Bengals' Offensive Resurgence Under Backup QB Browning

Shift in offensive strategy and strong performances from running backs and offensive line fuel Bengals' playoff hopes.

The Cincinnati Bengals have seen a resurgence in their offense, scoring 34 points in back-to-back games, under backup quarterback Jake Browning who has been leading the team in the absence of injured Joe Burrow.
Browning has shown comfort with a shift in the Bengals' offensive strategy that includes more designed runs, screen plays, and snaps under center.
Running backs Joe Mixon and Chase Brown have been key to the Bengals' success, both on the ground and in the air, contributing significantly to the team's balanced approach.
The Bengals' offensive line has also stepped up, allowing zero sacks in their recent win against the Indianapolis Colts.
The Bengals, currently standing at 7-6, face a tough closing stretch against the Vikings, Steelers, Kansas City, and Cleveland.
