The Bengals are rising up from the ashes on the back of their exceptional performances in recent games. They started the season on a bitter note and were handed two straight defeats. While they were decimated by the Browns 24-3 in Week 1, in the second week, they performed much better but ultimately lost to the Ravens 27-24. The start by the Bengals was rather forgettable, but the comeback by them is that much sweeter.
They have now won three of their last four games. Despite the setback against the Titans 27-3, the Bengals have defeated the Cardinals 34-20 comprehensively and toppled fan-favorite Seahawks 17-13 in the last game. This was only made possible after some exceptional performances from none other than their star QB, Joe Burrow! While the injuries are somewhat synonymous in a contact sport, some prove their mettle while making a comeback.
Joe Burrow now has the team?s approval!
