Cincinnati Bengals defense coordinator Lou Anarumo joins us today on In the Trenches with Dave Lapham to discuss and recap the Bengals' disappointing 2023 season. 
It was an up-and-down season for the Bengals who dealt with an injured Joe Burrow for the entire season but still managed to end the season with a winning record and were one game away from making the postseason. 
One of the biggest surprises of the season was the Bengals defense. After having two very strong seasons in a row it seemed like Coach Anarumo and the players found their stride and that would continue in 2023 but that was not the case. 
The defense had some strong performances and played well in some big games but they could never find that consistency that was there in the seasons prior. A big part of that was the loss of both their starting safeties; Jessie Bates and Von Bell. Lou talks about the ups and downs that the defense went through during the season and how he believes the failures of this season will only make the team stronger in 2024.
