'It's still alive with him': Joe Burrow's off-script ability key to Bengals' playoff hopes

CINCINNATI -- As the pocket collapsed around Joe Burrow in a Week 9 game against the Carolina Panthers, the Cincinnati Bengals quarterback scanned the end zone for a receiver.

He rolled right and bought enough time for running back Joe Mixon to spin off a defender and catch a 12-yard pass for a touchdown, one of Mixon’s five scores in the 42-21 win.
