Following an interception on the opening play by Bengals safety Jessie Bates, Burrow stuck in the pocket for an extra second and found running back Joe Mixon for a 21-yard pickup. Even though Burrow took two hits before the end of that drive, the Bengals opened the game with a 3-0 lead.
In the last four minutes of the first half, Burrow’s headset to communicate with the coaching staff broke for a series of plays. With no direct line to the sideline, Taylor tried to shout plays to Burrow, and then Burrow had to run across the backfield to communicate to the rest of the offense.
