The Bengals franchise began in 1968 after three years’ worth of campaigning from Paul Brown, former coach for the Cleveland Browns. The Cincinnati Bengals defeated the San Diego Chargers, 27-7, in the 1981 AFC Championship, which was the coldest game in NFL history in terms of wind chill at -37 degrees.
Brown named the team after Cincinnati’s former football team called the Bengals that played in the 1930s and 1940s. In 1970, the Bengals secured the AFC Central Division title and became the first expansion team to win its division in its first three years. The Bengals have been to the Super Bowl three times in their history (XVI, XXIII, and LVI).
