Bengals Broncos post-game recap | Statistics, notes and quotes

Burrow finished the game with 39 completions on 49 attempts for 412 yards and three touchdowns. It was his eighth straight game with at least 250 yards and three touchdown passes, extending the longest streak in NFL history.

Burrow also became the fourth quarterback in league history with three or more scoring passes in eight straight games, joining Tom Brady (10 straight in 2007), Peyton Manning (eight in 2004) and Andrew Luck (eight in 2018).

Burrow also finished the game with 139 career touchdown passes (regular season), surpassing Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen and Pro Football Hall of Famer Peyton Manning and the third-most in NFL history in a player’s first five seasons.

Burrow finished the game with a league-leading 4,641 passing yards, surpassing his own team record of 4,611 for the 2021 season. Today’s game marked the seventh time this year that he passed for 300 or more yards.

Higgins had a season-high 11 catches for 131 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-winning three-yard score in overtime. He is the fourth player in the NFL this season to receive three touchdowns in a game and the second Bengal, joining Ja’Marr Chase in Week 10 in Baltimore. Today was Higgins’ first three-touchdown performance of his career.

Higgins’ 11 receptions were just one shy of his career-high 12, which he recorded in a home win over Baltimore in Week 16 of the 2021 season. His 131 receiving yards were the sixth most in a game of his career.

Higgins now has a career-high 10 receiving touchdowns this season. He surpassed his previous career high of seven (2022 season) on his first touchdown of the game, a two-yarder from Burrow late in the second quarter that gave Cincinnati its first lead. Higgins has also scored eight goals in his last seven games played, the most in his career spanning seven games.

Ja’Marr Chase recorded his 113th catch of the season early in the fourth quarter, surpassing former Pro Bowler TJ Houshmandzadeh’s 112 in 2007 and setting the Bengals single-season record. Chase finished the night with nine grabs for 102 yards, increasing his reception total to 117 this season.
