Vice President JD Vance has always been a fan of the Cincinnati Bengals, and their latest victory over the Baltimore Ravens gave him more to celebrate. Despite not attending the game in Baltimore, Vance praised the Bengals’ efforts on social media. The team scored all their 35 points in the second half, largely due to quarterback Joe Burrow’s four touchdown passes.
Vance’s interest in the team was evident during his visit to the Bengals’ practice session. During his visit, he had a conversation with Dexter Lawrence, showing support for his team and for Burrow. Vance’s support for the Bengals, a potential Super Bowl contender, was clear when he commented on their significant win. “Huge win for Cincinnati,” he stated, expressing optimism about the team’s chances.
The Bengals have been on a two-game winning streak, improving their record after some earlier losses. However, Vance believes in their ability to continue winning. Vance also showed admiration for Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, noting an interaction between Chase and his son. Chase complimented Vance’s son, Vivek, on his Bengals football gloves, which caught Vance’s attention.
Contrary to reports suggesting a cold reception during Vance’s visit to the Bengals training facility, Vance shook hands and engaged with coach Zac Taylor and other team members, refuting claims of an unfriendly atmosphere. Looking forward, Vance is optimistic about the team’s upcoming schedule. The Bengals will face four teams with losing records in their next five games, including the Washington Commanders and Tennessee Titans.
These games present an opportunity for the Bengals to confirm Vance’s predictions, especially with a game against division co-leader Pittsburgh on the horizon. This matchup could play a crucial role in determining their success.
