"Time for me to take over."
That's what Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said with his team trailing the Jacksonville Jaguars 14-0 early in the second half last Thursday night, in a game the Bengals went on to win 24-21.
Burrow is miked up in a video shared Thursday afternoon via Twitter by NFL Films:
In a shorter video excerpt of miked-up Burrow shared last Saturday by @NFL via @NFLFilms, Burrow takes a huge hit on a Jacksonville Jaguars blitz as tight end C.J. Uzomah catches Burrow's pass that put the Bengals in position to kick their game-winning field goal Thursday night at Paul Brown Stadium.
"That's what I'm talking about," Burrow exclaims in the video. "Can't zero me. ... Put it in my hands. It's over."
Burrow was named FedEx Air Player of the Week and AFC Offensive Player of the Week. He ranks third in completion percentage and sixth in passer rating in the National Football League this season.
