It was a miracle finish fitting for a miracle season. With 20 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson picked off Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill. On the following play, Burrow delivered again under pressure.
In a game where he took a career-high nine sacks, Burrow delivered in the final seconds. With a 19-yard throw to wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, Burrow put the Bengals in field-goal range.
Evan McPherson made a 52-yard field goal at the buzzer to win the game, and now the Bengals will get a shot at the AFC title.
“This Bengals team will be remembered forever,” McPherson said. “The city is on fire, and it’ll probably burn down tonight. Then we’ll burn it down next week and have a whole city fly out to California for a Super Bowl.”
