During one of our research projects, we came across an issue with the date that Cincinnati was awarded an AFL team. The Hall of Fame adds their perspective.

The Bengals have lost their share of players over the years. The recent trend appreciates that because instead of losing them, Cincinnati has actually become a better team.
If Travelle Wharton is at 100 percent when training camp rolls around, can he push Clint Boling for the starting left guard spot?
In the dog days of summer (is it summer yet?) when football news is scarce, we have the opportunity to get to know each other better.
James Harrison comes from Dick LeBeau's defense, a 3-4 that used its base personnel more than most. Let's take a look at Harrison in every phase of the defensive game.
The Bengals announced the signing of third-round pick Shawn Williams on Friday morning.
Despite enjoying a successful rookie season in which he started all 17 games, including a playoff game, second-year guard Kevin Zeitler has actually been putting in extra time following practices during the Bengals' OTAs.
The Cincinnati Bengals were essentially born on May 24, 1967 after the AFL announced approval for Cincinnati's newest franchise.
Despite making the playoffs in 2012, the Bengals actually sport one of the youngest groups of starters in the entire league, setting them up for continued and sustained success in the NFL.
One of the biggest battles this offseason will be for the strong safety position.
In the final year of a rookie deal, Geno Atkins is probably going to be paid well for his services. What kind of number do the Bengals need to offer?
Coming off of the worst season in Bengals history, first year head coach Marvin Lewis takes the reigns.
