With heavy snow falling all day long at the Buffalo Bills’ Highmark Stadium, it was the visiting Cincinnati Bengals who looked like the more comfortable team in the conditions. Joe Burrow calmly carved through Buffalo’s defense and led his Bengals to their second straight AFC championship game with a 27-10 win on Sunday in the divisional round.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Sometime a few days before Super Bowl Week, when the Bengals got a bit of a break before everything ramped up and the team headed to California, Joe Burrow watched “A Football Life: Kurt Warner.” As Burrow marinated on Cincinnati’s 23-20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LVI on Sunday night, he remembered something Warner said during the documentary. “He said they let it sting too much,” Burrow recalled. “They didn’t celebrate what they accomplished.

The Cincinnati Bengals are one of the few teams in the league that have managed to stay mostly healthy amid an NFL-wide COVID-19 surge. As of Wednesday afternoon, the Bengals had just one player on their reserve/COVID-19 list. Quarterback Joe Burrow has a pretty good reason why that is — though southwest Ohio residents may not be too happy with it. “Fortunately, there’s not a ton to do in Cincinnati,” he said Wednesday, via ESPN.
