The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback room might be the deepest it has ever been, and arguably the best in the NFL. In today's episode of The Stone Shields Show, I break down the entire Bengals QB depth chart, from Joe Burrow to Joe Flacco, Josh Johnson, and Sean Clifford, and explain why Cincinnati deserves major credit for how it built this position.

We start with Joe Burrow, entering Year 7 of his NFL career, and discuss why the urgency to win a Super Bowl has never been higher. Can Burrow stay healthy in 2026? If he does, the Bengals have every reason to believe they can compete for a Lombardi Trophy.
Then we dive into one of my favorite moves of the Bengals' offseason: bringing back Joe Flacco. Cincinnati made the smart decision to invest $6 million in arguably the best backup quarterback in football, giving the team a legitimate chance to stay afloat if Burrow misses a few games. That's something the Bengals simply didn't have in previous seasons.
I also discuss why Josh Johnson is an ideal QB3, what Sean Clifford brings to the roster, and why this quarterback room is deeper than any Bengals fan has seen in decades.
