The Cincinnati Bengals started the 2023 NFL Season slowly.
They were 1-3 through their first four games, and it appeared as though this team had thrown in the towel.
However, that was before Joe Burrow was fully healthy.
After this initial skid, the Bengals have rattled off four straight victories, including a recent statement win over the Buffalo Bills.
Emmanuel Acho recently outlined his thoughts on the Bengals in a recent segment of “Speak” on FS1.
“The Bengals are looking like the best team in the AFC,” Acho said.

He used their recent three-game stretch to further highlight his point.
Three weeks ago, the Bengals faced off against the Seattle Seahawks at home, coming away with a narrow win.
Then, they went to San Francisco, taking down the 49ers in blowout fashion.
After these two impressive victories, as Acho mentions, they took care of business against the Bills in primetime.
He believed this stretch of games felt like playoff matchups for the Bengals.
In his eyes, if they can perform this well against elite opponents in the regular season, he sees no problem with them being able to do this in the postseason.
All of this analysis led to Acho declaring the Bengals to be the best team in the AFC.
Burrow has continued to shine, seemingly getting healthier each week.
The Bengals’ offensive line, while sometimes flawed, has gotten the job done on his road to recovery.
Their defense is middle of the road in terms of points allowed per game, which is what Burrow needs to stay in games.
Will Acho’s prediction of the Bengals as the AFC’s best team materialize in another AFC Championship appearance?
