This week, Colin Cowherd, host of FS1’s The Herd, expressed skepticism about the Cincinnati Bengals’ Super Bowl contender status despite their 31-17 preseason win over the Washington Commanders. Cowherd argued that the Bengals lack the organizational depth and structure required to compete with elite NFL teams. He criticized their frugal approach, particularly their handling of key players like Trey Hendrickson, suggesting they “pinch pennies” and fail to maximize their roster around star quarterback Joe Burrow and wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase. Cowherd stated, “It’s just too lopsided of an organization. It’s Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, and everything else,” implying the team relies heavily on its stars without sufficient support.

He compared the Bengals unfavorably to successful franchises like the New England Patriots and Kansas City Chiefs, which boast strong ownership, coaching, and management. Cowherd highlighted the Bengals’ lack of a true general manager and limited scouting staff—four scouts compared to the Philadelphia Eagles’ 21—as evidence of their organizational shortcomings. He believes this lack of infrastructure hinders their ability to build a well-rounded team, especially as Burrow’s contract demands increase.
Cowherd also noted that without Hendrickson, the Bengals’ defense could be among the league’s worst, a vulnerability exposed in their preseason performance. Despite Burrow’s leadership and talent, Cowherd warned that the Bengals’ failure to address these issues could lead to ongoing struggles, echoing his earlier prediction that Burrow might eventually demand a trade due to frustration with the team’s management. While acknowledging their talent, Cowherd remains unconvinced the Bengals are doing enough to capitalize on their window of opportunity, a sentiment that has sparked debate among fans.
