Burrow throws 5 TD passes as Bengals rally past Titans in OT
Joe Burrow, quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals, threw an impressive five touchdown passes during regulation and then scored a 9-yard touchdown in overtime, leading the Bengals to a thrilling 43-36 victory over the Tennessee Titans. The Bengals, who have won three straight games and are 5-2, claimed their first win since 2021.
In overtime, the Bengals marched 70 yards in five plays to take the lead, and Burrow capped off the drive with a touchdown pass to Tee Higgins. Burrow completed 33 of 48 passes for 462 yards but was intercepted three times by Titans safety Amari Hooker. Tennessee, playing without injured wide receiver Carnell Tate and standout pass rusher Jeffery Simmons, entered the game as a 13 1/2-point underdog and struggled to gain first downs after taking over in overtime.
