Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher is entering his second season in the role, aiming to build upon a record-setting 2024 campaign. Last season, the Bengals’ offense achieved a franchise-high 472 points, with quarterback Joe Burrow leading the NFL in passing yards and touchdowns, and wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase securing the receiving triple crown.
Pitcher emphasizes continuity in the offensive scheme, stating, “We’re going to be who we are.” While the core playbook remains intact, he is introducing new concepts to leverage the team’s evolving personnel.
Regarding Joe Burrow, Pitcher notes the quarterback’s impressive return following wrist surgery, highlighting his sharpness and leadership during offseason activities.
The Bengals’ 2025 draft additions, including right tackle Amarius Mims and wide receiver Jermaine Burton, are expected to contribute significantly. Burton, in particular, has shown promise in early practices, catching the attention of both Pitcher and Burrow.
With these developments, the Bengals aim to return to playoff contention and compete for another AFC North title.
