Burrow powers Bengals past the Falcons in Madrid for their 4th straight win

Joe Burrow led the Cincinnati Bengals to a 34-17 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Madrid on Sunday, securing their fourth straight win. Burrow threw for three touchdowns and rushed for another, while the Bengals' offense continued their impressive performance. Ja'Marr Chase caught eight passes for 142 yards in the first half, with Tee Higgins contributing two touchdown catches.

Chase celebrated one of his catches in a bullfighting style, mimicking a bull by putting his hands on his head. Bengals coach Zac Taylor praised Burrow's outstanding performance, noting that it's difficult to take the pressure off him given the team's strong support. The Bengals' success in scoring 30 points or more in four straight games is a significant milestone, not experienced since 1997.

The Falcons, currently at 3-6, had their second consecutive loss. Burrow completed 24 of 29 passes for 271 yards, including a touchdown in overtime during a previous game against the Tennessee Titans. The atmosphere at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium was electric, with 78,660 fans in attendance, and fans of both teams present.
