It was only a matter of time.
Joe Burrow’s record-breaking performance against the Baltimore Ravens over the weekend has earned him AFC Offensive Player of the Week honors.
Burrow, the first 500-yard passer in Bengals history, threw for a franchise-record 525 yards. That’s also the fourth-highest single-game total in NFL history. He added four touchdown passes on a day that, combined with his first blowout win over Baltimore this year, means he historically owns the Ravens.
And while the Ravens probably didn’t like it very much, Burrow was right there after the game saying he wasn’t sorry for running up the score on a heated rival.
With the performance, Burrow looks like a big name in Comeback Player of the Year and maybe even MVP conversations.
No doubt about it.
