Cornerback Josh Newton (26) was the third cornerback with Cam Taylor-Britt a healthy scratch, but DJ Turner II (56) and Dax Hill (57) remain the clear-cut starters at the position when the Bengals put seven in the box on defense.

Once upon a time Joe Flacco was a villain for Bengals fans. The veteran quarterback has made 22 starts against Cincinnati, posting a 9-13 record in the process. He started against the Bengals in Week 1 with the Browns and has had countless battles with Cincinnati when he was in Baltimore for the first 11 seasons of his career.

Flacco shared what its like playing for the Bengals after years of competing against them during a post-game press conference Oct. 16.

The Cincinnati Bengals traded for quarterback Joe Flacco and got immediate results, highlighted by the Thursday night primetime win over the Pittsburgh Steelers to save the season.

Joe Flacco proved he's still got it on Thursday Night Football. One can't help but wonder how the Browns are feeling about trading him away.

In what became affectionately known as the "Unc Bowl" on social media, 40-year-old Bengals QB Joe Flacco bested 41-year-old Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers.

While the NFL remains a young man’s game as a whole, Thursday Night Football was a good example that the old guys can still sling it.
