Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow sounded like most fans after his team’s win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 1.
Simply put, Burrow said the Bengals “stole one” from the Browns.
Burrow said as much in his postgame presser while waxing poetic about everyone on his offense understanding that things need to be much better by Week 2.

Somehow, that would be an understatement, considering Burrow only threw for 113 yards and the rushing attack averaged just two yards per carry. The offense looked elite on the scripted first drive, then collapsed.
In the fourth quarter alone, the Bengals had an ugly minus-18 yards.
But Burrow is also correct when saying that the Bengals won no games just like that last season. So, if nothing else, things have already started better than a year ago for the team in the luck department.
Now, it’s about regrouping so that they don’t need to be in a spot to “steal” another win.
