On this episode of Chatterbox Bengals, the discussion centers around two big names who could generate plenty of attention if they became available — Odell Beckham Jr. and Tyreek Hill. Both players have had tremendous NFL careers, but neither feels like the right answer for the Bengals right now. Cincinnati has more important factors to consider than simply adding the biggest available name, and there are questions about whether either veteran would actually provide the kind of impact the offense needs.
The conversation also turns to the Bengals' running game and whether changes could be coming after the struggles early in the season. Cincinnati may need to get more creative with how the running backs are used, particularly by experimenting with more runs from shotgun formations.
Running out of shotgun could give the offense more flexibility, create different looks for opposing defenses and potentially help the Bengals find more consistent production on the ground. With Joe Burrow operating the offense, forcing defenses to account for the passing game while creating additional opportunities in the run game could be worth exploring.
There is plenty to figure out for Cincinnati as the season moves forward, from managing injuries at receiver to finding answers in the running game. The Bengals don't necessarily need another superstar — they need the right pieces and a scheme that maximizes what is already on the roster.
This episode of Chatterbox Bengals breaks down the receiver situation, the Beckham and Hill possibilities, why neither veteran should necessarily be the answer, and what changes could help get the Bengals' running game moving in the right direction.

Joe Burrow threw for big numbers, but his two interceptions were impossible to ignore. In a game where the Bengals had opportunities to take control, those turnovers proved costly and once again raised questions about Cincinnati’s ability to finish games when the margin for error is razor thin.
Then there’s the running game. The Bengals simply could not establish the run against Jacksonville, putting even more pressure on Burrow and the passing game to carry the offense. When Cincinnati needed to stay balanced and control the clock, the inability to run the football became a major problem.
Defensively, missed tackles also played a huge role. Jordan Battle in particular had opportunities to make plays but couldn’t consistently finish them. Against a team like Jacksonville, those missed opportunities add up quickly — and Bengals fans have every right to be frustrated.
And then came another chance for Joe Burrow to orchestrate a game-winning drive.
The Bengals got the ball late with an opportunity to complete the comeback, but once again, Cincinnati came up short. That’s becoming the biggest question surrounding this team: Can the Bengals actually close out the games they need to win?
Are the Bengals still a legitimate contender, or are these recurring problems signs of something bigger?
We’re breaking it all down on this episode of Bengals Overreaction Monday — including Joe Burrow’s interceptions, the nonexistent running game, Jordan Battle’s missed tackles, the defense, the final drive, and what this loss means for the Bengals moving forward.

The Cincinnati Bengals fall to 2-2 after a frustrating 22-17 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars at Paycor Stadium.

The Bengals still had a chance to win it late, but their final drive came up short in Jacksonville territory.
