Show Notes

The Bengals will put a Super Bowl-quality team on SoFi Stadium's field on February 13th. But how did this Cincinnati roster reach Super Bowl quality? Paul and Jay speak with Bengals' Director of Player Personnel Duke Tobin, Scouting Director Mike Potts, and scouts Christian Sarkisian and Andrew Johnson about the construction of this championship-contending team. Is it validating seeing the Bengals succeed this year, especially when you consider where this team was not long ago and how sparse the staff is? What is each front office member proud of most, and how did free agency play into fostering team culture?
