Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals are clicking on all cylinders on offense, and that continued on Sunday morning. Burrow threw for 271 yards and three touchdowns, while also scoring another on the ground in the 34-17 victory.
That was his fourth consecutive game with at least four total touchdowns, and the former LSU star joined Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, and Dan Marino as the only players to achieve it.
The Bengals have really struggled over the years at getting off to a fast start, but that isn’t the case in 2026. With the win, they moved to 6-2 on the season, and right there as a Super Bowl contender in the AFC.
Burrow has played as well as anybody in the NFL, throwing for 2,386 yards, 23 touchdowns, and six interceptions.
In the off-season, the Bengals made a huge move when they traded the No. 10 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft to acquire superstar defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence from the New York Giants. That is the type of move that puts everybody on notice, and the urgency is at a different level in Cincinnati.
Things are going well in Cincinnati, and the play of Burrow is a big reason why.
