Joe Burrow just reminded everyone why he’s called “Joe Cool.” In a nail-biting overtime win over the Denver Broncos, Burrow put on a quarterback clinic that had fans and analysts in splits.
With sharp throws, clutch calls, and ice-cold composure, Burrow carried the Cincinnati Bengals when it mattered most.
Fans Hail Joe Burrow After 3 Clutch Drives Spark MVP Buzz
Dubbed “historically excellent” by some, Burrow pulled off not one, not two, but three game-winning drives in the same game (yes, his defense and kicker really made him do that).
Former NFL safety Ryan Clark and fans on social media couldn’t contain their admiration.
Clark declared, “Joe Burrow is the Mother Effing MAN!!! He is playing Historically excellent!! My God this man is superb!”

One fan added, “Dude had to lead 3 game winning drives in the same game because his defense can’t get a stop and kicker can’t hit a chip shot!”
The message is clear: Burrow is carrying the Bengals on his back.

This Bengals team is drafting in the top-5 if Burrow’s not playing QB. You can’t say that about the Bills, Chiefs, & Ravens, IMHO, that demands MVP!— Kevin (@KevinMcCune) December 29, 2024
Statistically, Burrow continues to dazzle. As one fan pointed out, “Would be MVP if our defense wasn’t so terrible.”

Despite MVP buzz swirling around his name, not everyone agrees.
Some argue that other quarterbacks — like Lamar Jackson, already crowned the favorite — have the edge. Others critique Burrow’s season as solid but not yet on the level of Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, or Peyton Manning.
Still, Burrow’s leadership, poise, and playmaking are undeniable. With the Bengals still fighting for playoff contention, fans are hopeful for a deep run.
As one fan aptly put it, “They deserve to make playoffs. Hopefully, they do.”
For now, one thing’s certain: Burrow is a man on a mission, and the league can’t stop watching.
Micah Parsons Backs Joe Burrow for MVP
Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons doesn’t have an MVP vote, but he’s nevertheless all in on Burrow.
“If Joe Burrow takes this team to the playoffs, I don’t even think it should be in question who’s MVP!! God d***! Best in the world rn!” Parsons shared on X.
Burrow made his MVP case louder than ever in the Bengals’ 30-24 overtime win against the Broncos. The Bengals’ QB delivered three TD passes, including a game-winning strike.
Statistically, Burrow leads the league with 42 passing touchdowns and 4,641 yards. His 39 of 49 performance on Saturday pushed his 2024 completion rate to 69.8% and his career rate to an NFL-best 68.3%. The numbers scream MVP, and so does his resilience.
Parsons’ endorsement adds fuel to the fire. Coming from someone who knows ball, it’s high praise.
