It’s no secret to anyone who’s watched the Cincinnati Bengals over the past few seasons that quarterback Joe Burrow has changed the franchise since he was selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, but one stat explains just how dominant he’s been so early in his career.
By beating the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday night, Joe Burrow picked up the fourth playoff win of his career. And he set some Bengals history in the process.
Joe Burrow, in his 3rd NFL season, now holds the Bengals franchise record for most career playoff wins.

This is both incredibly exciting about the future of the Bengals with Joe at QB and incredibly sad at how inept this team has been in the playoffs throughout their existence https://t.co/PZzKS2bLy3

Burrow and the Bengals undoubtedly hope many more playoff wins will come after these first four – along with some Super Bowl wins.
