What’s Joe Burrow cooking this season? Whatever it is, the NFL is struggling to keep up with his performance. Just a week after breaking his own record for touchdown passes with 36 for the Bengals, Burrow set a new NFL record that no other QB has achieved. He surpassed Tom Brady by throwing for at least 250 yards and three TDs in seven consecutive games. But Burrow isn’t just showcasing his on-field talents; he’s also excelling on Instagram, as his post-game flex demonstrated.
Such a remarkable achievement calls for a celebration, right? Burrow took to Instagram to share highlights from the game against the Browns, featuring his stunning touchdown pass to Tee Higgins as the first image. He captioned the post, “Professional playmaker,” highlighting his accomplishments this week in Cincinnati.
With his three touchdown passes on Sunday, Burrow leads Lamar Jackson 39-37 with two weeks left in the season. You might wonder if he’s only leading in touchdowns. He is also at the top in passing yards, with 4,229, all while keeping the Bengals’ playoff aspirations alive.
Cincinnati is still pursuing a playoff spot after securing their third straight win on Sunday. To keep their postseason hopes alive, they must win their remaining games against the Broncos and Steelers. If they don’t, Burrow’s impressive campaign might end with the regular season. Burrow has the chance to make more history if he maintains his performance in the final two weeks. If he continues to throw for three touchdowns, he could break record after record. Currently, the 28-year-old is tied with Hall of Famer Dan Marino for seven consecutive games with three TD passes.
Leading the pack is Tom Brady, who holds the record with ten consecutive games, which Burrow just surpassed with his recent performance. His next milestones are Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck, each with eight straight games featuring at least three touchdowns. In addition to all these records, Tee Higgins has given his QB a fitting nickname after witnessing his incredible 37th TD this season.
