The Cincinnati Bengals posted a subpar 9-8 record during the 2024 NFL season. They did this while superstar quarterback Joe Burrow threw for 4,918 yards, 43 touchdowns and nine assists. The LSU product was remarkable during the campaign, though it wasn't enough for the squad to overcome a 1-4 start to the season to make the playoffs.

By now, fans have seen that Burrow spent an unusual amount of time in front of the cameras and microphones during Super Bowl media week. He put a ton of pressure on the team in the process as he seeks extensions for Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Trey Hendrickson and tight end Mike Gesicki.
