Bengals quarterback, Joe Burrow, confirmed that he had re-injured his right calf during Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens. The sight of the QB limping on the sideline toward the end of the team’s 27-24 defeat to Baltimore was concerning. The loss also resulted in the Bengals commencing the season with a 0-2 record for the second consecutive year.

It is still unclear how serious the injury might be. Meanwhile, ESPN Analyst Pat McAfee showed genuine concerns when talking to his crew on the show.

Pat McAfee fears the worst for Burrow and the Bengals

On ‘The Pat McAfee Show’, while the discussion was going around the Bengals and Joe Burrow’s season so far, McAfee mentioned it felt weird seeing another slow start from the Bengals. As the discussion moved towards Burrow’s performance, a member said, “This year feels different, because he didn’t throw for barely anything against the Browns.” Further Adding to the conversation, “this feels bigger for some reason.”

Still, he was optimistic, and said, “It’s going to be tough for some fans, but we got to have faith.” 

Although it may be true that the Bengals usually pick up after a slow start, every season is different. They need to worry now or there won’t be much time left to change things.

How the season has been for the Bengals so far

The Cincinnati Bengals were expected to be one of the best teams in the NFL this year. With Joe Burrow as their quarterback, they had their sights set for the Super Bowl. But things aren’t going as planned, as they stand 0-2 down in the first two weeks.

In Week 1, they lost 24-3 to the Cleveland Browns. Although they performed a bit better in Week 2, they still suffered a loss. A 27-24 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens.

With Burrow having dark clouds of injury looming over him, things are not looking good. The Week 3 game against the Los Angeles Rams is going to be a tough challenge, but the Bengals must have an optimistic lookout and see how Burrow feels ahead of the game.

Another loss in the season will crush the hopes for the Super Bowl. One can only hope everything falls in place for the Bengals and they finally get a win this season. Will the Bengals make a comeback? What do you think?
