Joe Burrow continues to get heat for Super Bowl performance

One would think lifting an entire franchise, breaking a playoff curse, winning the first road playoff game in Bengals history, defeating Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium, and coming within two minutes of a world championship would be considered a good playoff run for a QB. And Joe Burrow did all that despite getting sacked 19 times in those four games.

However, some are being highly critical of the young quarterback, suggesting he didn’t deliver when it mattered most. That is, to me, a bit infuriating. It means they don’t quite understand what Burrow did, what he overcame, and his role in invigorating the entire team, defense included.
