The Cincinnati Bengals are not off to a great start after Thursday’s 35-30 loss to the Cleveland Browns moved their record to 0-2 this season.
One thing that should have Bengals fans excited was the play of Joe Burrow despite barley having any time to throw the ball.
Burrow finished 37/61 passing for 316-yards and 3 TDs while also rushing 7 times for 19-yards. PFF noted that Burrow had just an average of 2.40 seconds to throw the ball before pressure got to him.
The 61 pass attempts are 2nd most all time by a rookie in a game behind Chris Weinke (63) and his 37 completions were the most in a game by a rookie.
