The Cincinnati Bengals remain one of most notable teams leaugewide in the early stages of the Joe Burrow era.
That doesn’t figure to change anytime soon, not with Burrow around on a long-term contract and superstars such as Ja’Marr Chase helping to make the Bengals likely annual playoff contenders.
Besides the number of primetime games allotted by the league and metrics like social media engagement, one of the most interesting ways to gauge a team’s current popularity (or even competitiveness) is by looking at attendance numbers.
