The Cincinnati Bengals trailed the Baltimore Ravens 13-0 heading into the third quarter of Sunday’s matchup.
Although Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow finally found the end zone, his first-half struggles left Cincinnati scoreless through the opening two quarters.
Burrow completed just 6 of 12 passes for 43 yards before halftime, disappointing both fans and fantasy football managers, many of whom took to social media to vent their frustration over his performance.
A fan tweeted on X, “This is arguably the most incompetent half in the Joe Burrow era.”
Another user posted, “This could easily be the worst Bengals game of the Joe Burrow era, I’m not even exaggerating.”
Another X account tweeted, “What’s wrong with Joe Burrow.”
However, the 29-year-old quarterback appeared to find his rhythm after the break, throwing two touchdown passes while completing 15 of 22 attempts for 143 yards with just over four minutes remaining in the third quarter.
