The Cincinnati Bengals faithful had high hopes that quarterback Joe Burrow would lead the team to another Super Bowl this season.
But Burrow’s season-ending wrist injury has raised the question: Does the team have a chance of making the playoffs without him?
And does the Bengals’ Monday Night Football overtime win give fans hope?
