FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow wasn’t going to apologize for a win. He wasn’t interested in silver linings, either.
In last Saturday’s 22-18 victory over the New England Patriots, the Bengals needed two late stops, including a forced fumble inside their own 10-yard line, to avoid a major collapse
It was the type of game that shows a team’s championship mettle. But Burrow had another interpretation that reflected Cincinnati’s ambitions.
“I would also say that teams that want to win a Super Bowl put them away a little earlier,” Burrow said after the game.
