Quarterback Joe Burrow has always had that one thing you need from a quarterback that can never quite be defined with a number you’ll find in the box score. The way he carries himself is just on the next level.
The last player we saw similar to that was Tom Brady. Brady is currently probably the best quarterback in NFL history between winning championships and statistical accomplishments.
Burrow is obviously still searching for his first ring, but just from the way he completely turned this team around
upon arrival. From one of the worst teams in the NFL to playing in a Super Bowl. Burrow played a massive role in that.
Burrow may never reach the heights of Brady himself, but he is going to be fun to watch for awhile either way.
Bengals’ rival player revives the rare comparison that seems to only find Joe Burrow in the NFL
Since even before he was drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals, quarterback Joe Burrow has been the subject of a truly unfair comparison. An enemy from the AFC North was the latest to compare Burrow’s game to that of the greatest QB of all time during the NFL’s Top 100 Players of 2026.
Quick Hits | Knight and Day at LB; Stewart Avoids Major Injury
Off their tough rookie seasons, linebackers Demetrius Knight Jr. and Barrett Carter have shown the Bengals a snap-crackle-and-pop confidence in their demeanors, and they teamed up for the rarity of rarities Thursday morning for an interception of quarterback Joe Burrow in a training camp practice.
It is good to see signs of life from this linebacker duo. How far this defense can improve may depend on how these two develop.
Training Camp Report | ROH Member James Brooks And Chase Brown’s Summit Of Little Big Men
“It looks like he can still play,” Brown said of the 67-year-old Brooks. “He was talking about how being physical is a mentality, and he carried that chip on his shoulder. And it was funny because I couldn’t agree with him more. I mean, I carry the same thing on my shoulder.
Brooks passing on anything to Chase Brown is just an incredible thing. It is funny how Brooks is today’s standard to be a running back. He was a do-it-all back, and now Brown takes up that latest mantle for the Bengals.
Bengals DE Stewart out multiple weeks with hyperextended knee
The team’s 2025 first-round pick went down Wednesday during team drills on the opening day of training camp. Stewart had to be carted off the field and had imaging done later in the day to see the extent of the damage.
From all accounts, this seems like the best case scenario. The way he had to be carted off the field after giving walking a go could easily have been a season ending injury. It is still unfortunate he will be missing some valuable reps after missing so many last year as well, but at least it isn’t the worst case scenario.
