A few days back, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said that the Super Bowl window for the Bengals is open for his whole career. People weren’t sure of what to make of this statement and did what they do best – troll him.
In his latest interview with NBC, Burrow explained what he meant by this and said that he wishes to be in Cincinnati his whole career. “My plan is to be here my whole career, and hopefully Zac is here my whole career,” Burrow told NBC reporter Kelsey Conway. “I have a lot of confidence in the front office doing their jobs in the offseason.”
Burrow has been consistent this entire season and put up some excellent numbers and led the Bengals to their second straight AFC North title. His stellar performance in the regular season also earned him his first Pro Bowl nomination.
Joe Burrow plans to stay with the Bengals until he plays his last game in the NFL
Burrow has been with the Bengals since 2020 when the team selected him first overall in the draft. After an injury-reduced rookie season, the LSU alum bounced back his second year and led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990. He also led Cincinnati to their third Super Bowl appearance in 2022 but unfortunately lost to the Los Angeles Rams.
Burrow quickly emerged as the franchise guy for the Bengals after delivering a back-to-back winning season. The offense is loaded with weapons in Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Joe Mixon. The offensive line has also improved after last season’s debacle. The defense has been on point his season as well. Ever since the arrival of Joe Burrow, the Bengals have transformed from the worst team in the league to one of the best.
Burrow’s latest comment about spending his whole career in Cincinnati will surely motivate the front office to provide him with the best receivers and a more strong offensive line. Talking more about the front office Burrow said, “The front office has drafted well, brought in great free agents, claimed guys off waivers that have really made an impact on the team. So, I think we have one of the best front offices in the league, and Zac in my opinion is the best head coach in the league, and that gives me a lot of confidence.”
After a successful 12-4 season, Joe Burrow and the Bengals are now looking to defeat the Baltimore Ravens once again in the wild-card game. Burrow is really looking to turn Cincinnati into a dynasty and, given his performance and leadership skills, that just might be possible.
