Joe Burrow's attitude is becoming infectious

Joe Burrow’s attitude has left a stamp on even his opponents
Burrow continues to be the leader the Bengals desperately needed.
After Burrow was taken No. 1, he immediately got to work. It’s been paying off in a big way.
The 6-foot-3 rookie has been a tear this season, throwing for over 2,700 yards and 11 touchdowns en route to helping the Bengals post a 2-5-1 record. He’s broken a slew of league records as well.
While his accuracy and his poise have both been noticeable and can easily be seen through his stats, what can’t be seen and is just as big of a factor is his leadership.
He doesn’t complain, he doesn’t pout — he just works. His entire personality can be wrapped up in this one story Chris Collinsworth told of a play that happened in the team’s Week 3 tie against the Eagles
“He (Burrow) took that shot and everybody in the stadium all looked back at the referee to see whether he was going to throw the flag or not. Basically Joe Burrow got up, saw there was no flag, didn’t complain, didn’t do one of those [gesture]. He turned back to Graham or Malik Jackson or one of them and he said, ‘You know when I’m the GOAT, I’m going to get that call.’ And everybody on their defense was like ‘I like this guy.’” Collinsworth said on The Lefkoe Show.
The confidence that is instilled in Burrow is slowly coming across the whole team, and it’s obvious. There’s a positive feel after the trade deadline, one that saw players like Carlos Dunlap, who clearly didn’t want to be in Cincinnati, leave.
Burrow is now the obvious leader and future of the offense while Jessie Bates, Sam Hubbard, Carl Lawson and others captain an improved defense.

Joe Burrow is all that he was represented to be and more.

He is the real deal

You can develop leaders, to a point, but natural born leaders will always lead more successfully even without developing that part of them. Joe is a natural born leader, and we'll be forever fortunate that we got to experience his natural born leadership (coupled with his skills/brain) moreso than ahem Ohio St.

Glad we had him last year than this waste of a season.

I love him.

I think it was Moss who said, in describing JB's pre game talks to the offense, " Joe doesn't just want to beat you, he wants to destroy you, humiliate you, make you want to quit".

There were quite a few posters on the Rant that said he was going to be a bust at LSU.

That is just hatred then.
Anyone with a fair assessment knows he has it upstairs to succeed at anything he does.
I was concerned about his NFL career only because of the fact he had to go to the Bengals.. No knock on him. However, Burrow and the team look to be improving every week.

You can definitely tell this team is missing his leadership. Whats worse is that it seems like there are no leaders at all on this team. Coaches can only do so much as far as leading a team. At some point, someone on the team needs to step up and take control as the leader of the team. I was hoping and expecting Jacoby Stevens to be that guy for the Tigers this year. It's pretty obvious he is definitely NOT that guy. I hope that after this aberration of a year is over someone steps up and leads by example and action of hard work and dedication to winning.

I didn't deserve Joe Burrow, but I'll always appreciate him.

if any fanbase deserved Joe Burrow it was LSU. The want for a legit qb was there for a long time.

Yeah we had the top QB and the Spread Offense for one year. Now we back to avg at best QB play , low end spread offense , terrible defense and it all adds up to better things to do on Saturday
