Remember all the chatter early on about the Bengals struggling against Cover 2?

Here are Joe Burrow's numbers against Cover 2 since Week 5:

72 of 85 (84.7%) — 2nd
.35 EPA dropback — 2nd
8.21 ANY/A — 5th

Against the most Cover 2 snaps in the league.

Dude is the truth.

Joe has always been good, duh. But I believe he has taken a big step forward this season in football maturity, knowing what to do and when to do it. Figuring out it's ok to throw the short to medium passes. Figuring out it's ok to live for the next down, so on.

I'm pumped for tonight and pumped even more for what's further down the road, this season and beyond.
