Bengals Beat Podcast: Week 17

Bengals beat writers Paul Dehner Jr. and Jim Owczarski sit down at the bar at Moerlein Lager House after Beyond The Stripes and invite you in to have a drink and listen to the conversation coming off the 20-17 overtime loss in Denver. 

We debate if AJ McCarron could win this team a playoff game, if results would be different with Andy Dalton, pros/cons of playing injured players this weekend, if Vontaze Burfict needs to alter the way he plays and the reliability of Mike Nugent. 

Hear from Russell Bodine, McCarron, Nugent and Burfict about all those topics, plus, this week in That's So Jagy and the depreciating results caused by a lack of sleep. 

As always you can hear the podcast released every Tuesday, next week we look forward to the first week of the postseason and the question five years in the making.
