Jake Browning Bengals QB Postgame News Conference Bengals 27 Vikings 24 OT 12 16 2023.mp3
Bengals QB Jake Browning led Cincinnati to three fourth-quarter touchdowns and directed the winning drive in overtime in his latest unbelievable performance since taking over for the injured Joe Burrow. He led the Bengals over the Minnesota Vikings 27-24 on Saturday in overtime to improve their position in the playoff race to 8-6 and 3-1 since Browning took control of the offense.
Browning was 29 for 42 for 324 yards with two touchdowns, to Tee Higgins and an interception.
He got revenged against the Vikings whose previous coaching staff cut him and really never gave him a chance. They probably think now they made a huge mistake.
The Vikings are a hard team to drive the field against. But the confident Browning took them on 5 drives of 7 plays or more. Never once did their constant blitzing unflap him.
