CINCINNATI — ESPN analyst and former NFL player Ryan Clark said the quiet part out loud on Monday’s episode of Get Up: Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is the only active NFL quarterback to meet the moment against Patrick Mahomes.

Burrow is 3-1 in his career against Mahomes, including the 2022 AFC Championship Game.

“Patrick Mahomes ain’t got no rival. He does not have one,” Clark said on the show. “It’s Patrick Mahomes and everybody else. And if you bring in anybody into the conversation, it’s only Joe Burrow. Since he is currently the only AFC fighter who has demonstrated the ability to slow his heart rate and take on the best.”

Burrow now gets the best schedule setup he’s had since his rookie season. Cincinnati faces a last-place schedule in 2024 and will get another chance to knock the Chiefs off in their building with what Bengals fans are hoping is a healthy Burrow at the helm.
