He’s the second quarterback in the last 20 seasons to turn the ball over four times in the first half of the season, which included a strip-sack for the Steelers, per ESPN. Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen did it in 2019 against the New York Jets.
Burrow’s struggles in the first half prompted the Steelers’ social media team to troll the Bengals.
The Bengals would eventually force overtime, and if it wasn’t for a few missed kicks by Evan McPherson, Cincinnati may have won and Pittsburgh would’ve had to face some of their own medicine.
