The Cincinnati Bengals are anxiously awaiting news on Joe Burrow and his return date.
The Cincinnati Bengals are having a nightmare season with poor performances. They haven’t been able to maintain a good performance in any aspect and have become one of the worst teams in the entire league. The decline began in Week 2 when Joe Burrow suffered a toe injury that required surgery. This happened on September 14 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
This forced Cincinnati to take a chance on a league veteran and former Super Bowl champion: Joe Flacco. With the former Baltimore Ravens quarterback at the helm, their offense has improved, but their defense has been a disaster and hasn’t been able to counter more powerful offenses, showing numerous weaknesses in every game they’ve played.
With a 3-7 record, the Bengals seem to have already lost the season, as they’re not far from matching the Ravens’ 5-5 or the Steelers’ 6-4. It’s a tough year, and they seem to be already starting to plan for next season. However, the team is beginning to dream of a miraculous comeback for the remainder of the regular season.
Cincinnati Bengals are excited for Sunday’s game
It was revealed this Wednesday that Joe Burrow practiced fully with the rest of the team. This has generated a lot of excitement for the tough game they will have on Sunday. They will face the New England Patriots, led by MVP candidate Drake Maye, at Paycor Stadium. It’s unknown if Flacco will continue at the helm, but fans are excited about the return of “Joe Brrr”.
Burrow was selected in the 2020 NFL Draft with the first overall pick in the first round. His selection has been a resounding success, as he led them to Super Bowl LVI against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Joe threw for 263 yards and a touchdown, although he was sacked a total of seven times. He lost the big game 23-20. That season he broke a postseason record, being sacked a total of 19 times. This statistic helps explain the large number of injuries he has suffered in his short career.
