The Cincinnati Bengals have had some of the biggest names of the sport wear their colours over the years, but that individual brilliance has never led to Super Bowl glory.
Boasting alumni such as Boomer Esiason, Ken Riley, Chad Johnson and Ken Anderson, the Bengals haven't lacked for star power over their 55-year history. That hasn't translated into playoff success, however, as Cincinnati has made just a handful of appearances in football's biggest game over its 55-year history.
Exactly how successful have the Bengals been? DAZN finds out below.
