I still see this issue as Case by Case.

Browning has been with the Bengals since 2021 and knows the System.

He would be asked to Start for a Team that has gone to 2 straight AFC Championship games and a Super Bowl.  Not for a scrub Team.

He isn't being asked to pull a Cooper Rush (5 straight Wins) or Brock Purdy level of success.

Just come in and show that during his 3rd year in the System he can Win 2 and lose 2.

It would NOT surprise me if he came in and did it even though the odds are against him as you imply.

I agree a young backup can win with talent we have on team but as a team we have not played to level yet so the team needs to raise to that level especially if we have our backup playing
