Last year was a lost season for the heralded Joe Burrow. Cincinnati took Burrow as the first overall pick of the 2020 NFL Draft. Burrow was coming off a 2019 national championship and Heisman Trophy as LSU quarterback. And his Ohio connections served to enhance his fan appeal. But Burrow lost nearly all of the season with an injury. Meanwhile, coach Zac Taylor almost lost his job. This year Burrow and Taylor have partnered up for a remarkable transformation with the NFL odds. Consider that the Bengals are coming off their first playoff win in 31 years.
