Joe Burrow Could Make NFL History vs. Steelers

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow could tie a historic NFL record Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Burrow has been on a tear, posting a 23-6 touchdown-interception ratio this season and throwing three or more touchdowns in each of the last four games. If he achieves this feat, he would join Peyton Manning (5 in 2004) for the most consecutive 4+ total touchdown games in a single season.

Burrow already holds the second-most all-time with four. The Steelers' defense has had a stellar season, allowing only 16 points in their last two wins. Bengals wide receiver Cris Collinsworth praised Burrow for carrying the entire team. The Bengals are currently in a first-place tie with the Steelers, with the tiebreaker favoring the Steelers due to their Week 3 victory.

This Sunday Night Football matchup between two AFC North teams with .750+ win percentages will be the first non-September primetime game of its kind since 1975.
