YOUR TEAM, YOUR HISTORY

The Cincinnati Bengals joined the American Football League as an expansion team in 1968.  By 1970, under the direction and guidance of the legendary Paul Brown, the Bengals won the AFC Central Division to become the first expansion team to win a championship of any kind in just three years.  In 1981, sporting a new look, Cincinnati advanced to its first of two appearances in the Super Bowl.
