Joe Burrow reaching new heights as Bengals face another big test
MADRID -- Joe Burrow talked a big game all offseason.
He wasn't shy about the aspirations for himself or the Cincinnati Bengals, which included a potential run at a Super Bowl.
Through eight games this season, Burrow and the team are backing all of that up. On an enormous stage, playing an international game in one of the world's most iconic venues in a standalone broadcast window, Burrow and the Bengals dazzled.
He was nearly flawless in a 34-17 victory Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons in the historic Santiago Bernabeu, Cincinnati's fourth straight win. And with his performance, he is in the mix for an award that has eluded him -- Most Valuable Player.
