Joe Burrow reveals the negative impact of giving up an interception in Bengals’ NFL Week 1 win
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow lamented his one major mistake in their season-opening 33-27 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bengals got their campaign to return to the NFL Playoffs after two years away to a strong start with a win over the Buccaneers, despite the clash not highlighting the best in star QB Burrow.
In Cincinnati Bengals' season-opening 33-27 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, quarterback Joe Burrow admitted that his sole regret was an interception he threw late in the third quarter. Burrow, who expressed satisfaction with the rest of his performance, felt he needed to work on eliminating such costly errors. He credited the offensive line for their stellar performance, noting that they ran the ball effectively and delivered the ball to his receivers promptly.
Despite the interception, Burrow completed 25 of 35 passes for 254 yards, throwing one touchdown. The Bengals' offensive line and defense performed exceptionally well, with the line only giving up one sack and the defense recovering four turnovers. Burrow's 76.4 QBR and 89.5 passer rating highlighted his solid performance. As the Bengals aim to return to the playoffs after a two-year absence, Burrow's individual performance will be closely scrutinized, especially as fans assess his potential future with the franchise.
