Cincinnati's season came to an abrupt end following its 23-20 loss to the eventual Super Bowl champion Chiefs. It has a lot of Cincy fans wondering what could have been if the Bengals would have been able to win that game in Kansas City.
The Bengals have an important offseason ahead. The team is planning to give QB Joe Burrow the big payday he deserves after he's taken them to two straight AFC Championships and one Super Bowl.
If Cincinnati is able to extend Burrow, it will be in a number of big games for the foreseeable future, and that's exactly why the Bengals have already opened up as a top five team.
The team is surely looking forward to its next matchup with the Chiefs and a shot at Cincinnati's first Super Bowl title. The Bengals are just one of 12 teams to never hoist the Lombardi Trophy.
