Best Bengals team of all time

I actually considered that team.  Barely lost on the road in a shootout in Oakland.  Only 4 teams got in back then.  The Superbowl was a real possibility.  This was the first wave of the 'West Coast' offense in the NFL.  

Amazing note.  In a 15 year span the Bengals introduced the West Coast offense, the No Huddle offense, and the Zone Blitz defense.  This franchise has been far more successful and interesting than younger fans know.   The likely reason the early Bengals get no respect is 1) no Super Bowl trophies and especially 2) the reign of error under Mike Brown.  All those game changing innovations occurred while Paul Brown was still alive.
