Joe Burrow is a man with an infectious smile and an even more deadly competitor on the football field. Patrick Mahomes would surely vouch for that statement. But after thrashing the Cleveland Browns, the Cincinnati Bengals QB got cornered on the viral ‘wisdom tooth’ video. And he reacted to it in a hilarious fashion.

The video went viral last month in which a girl admitted to being attracted to Burrow’s ambitious nature.

Joe Burrow reacts to the viral video 

After registering yet another win in the NFL, Joe Burrow appeared on Eli and Peyton Manning‘s show ‘The Manning Cast’. Here the Manning brothers showed him the viral ‘wisdom tooth video’ of a female Bengals fan who expressed her love for the quarterback. And Burrow’s reaction to it was priceless.

“It sounds like I am being called ugly here if you ask me. I could be wrong but…” Burrow said after watching the video. Then Eli Manning pointed out that she also called him ambitious, to which Burrow replied in an obvious manner.“Yes, I am ambitious,”

Burrow missed out on the Super Bowl ring by a whisker last year. But he is in the running for it again. And going by his ambitions and recent performances, it shouldn’t be a surprise if he actually wins it this time around.

A season to match ambitions

After joining the Bengals in 2020 as the first overall pick of the NFL draft, Burrow has made quite an impact. He led the franchise to a Super Bowl in the 2021 season, only to come up short against the Los Angeles Rams. But it looks like he wants that ring, or at least a shot at it, again this season.

The Bengals lost their first two games of the 2022 season. But since then, the unit looks formidable. The defending AFC champions have won nine of the 11 games since their week two loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Burrow is the cornerstone of every Bengals performance. The QB is third in the league in passing yards with 3,685 yards. He is also second in the number of touchdowns scored with 27. The opposing defenses have intercepted just nine of his 473 pass attempts. Mind-boggling numbers.

The Bengals are 9-4 overall so far this season and are second on the AFC North table. The Baltimore Ravens are at top of the division but have a similar record. So, will Cool Joe finally get his hands on the Super Bowl ring this season?
