On Monday, things went from bad to worse for the Cincinnati Bengals following their loss to the Washington Commanders. The loss took the Bengals season from 0-2 to 0-3, and fans are now worried about starting quarterback Joe Burrow.
Monday night’s game between the Bengals and the Commanders was the first game since the 1940s to end without a punt or turnover. It was a solid game, with the Commanders winning by a final score of 38 to 33.
Fans were already worried following the loss to Jayden Daniels and his squad. However, a video of Burrow and head coach Zac Taylor that surfaced following the loss seems to have added fuel to the fire.

In the video, Zac Taylor can be spotted marching to the coach’s room with his starting quarterback, Joe Burrow, following right after him. Neither of the NFL personalities looked very happy as Burrow hung his head on the way.
NFL fans were all over the video; some even claimed that the signal caller complained to his coach about the Bengals’ defense. “Burrow wants a better defense,” one fan said, which could be what the quarterback wanted to say.

Another NFL fan even joked about wanting the Bengals’ star to tell his head coach that he won’t be coaching the team any further, commenting, “Hopefully Joe let them know they have both been relieved of their duties.”

Even though the Bengals have yet to get a win this NFL season, fans shouldn’t stress over their early game struggles. Burrow had a solid game, completing over 76 percent of his passes for over 300 yards while adding three passing touchdowns.
