OFF SCRIPT
Extending plays may be one of Burrow's best attributes as a quarterback but it can be a rollercoaster of emotions for a coach.
Callahan: "Two things, both one good, one bad, one is the same as Zac (Taylor). My eyes immediately go to the chase … he's got such a feel for it, but I'm always looking behind him to see what's coming. Not that I can do anything from where I'm at. It's just more of an 'Oh my God, please get this ball out of your hand and don't get hit and lose the ball'.
"The second one is what happens more often. My eyes go down the field as he gets out of the pocket and I just know that once he breaks contain, and that ball goes up, that it's likely going to be a completion when he gets a chance to get out there.
"That's sort of the same feeling I had when (I watched) Patrick Mahomes and that at the end of the half against us, he got out there at the numbers and all of a sudden his body language changed to one where he was just about to launch the ball down the field and you go 'Oh my God, where's this going? It's probably going to be a touchdown just because it usually is'.
"I have that same feeling when Joe gets out in the perimeter, when he gets out there and I can see his eyes downfield, and I see what's happening downfield I've got a whole lot of confidence that something really good is about to happen."
FUTURE HALL OF FAMER
The Bengals are well balanced on offense and the team has been riding the hot hand Burrow as of late.
Mixon on getting fewer carries: "You pretty much try to do whatever you can, to take over those opportunities. But, sometimes it's hard when we've got a future Hall of Fame quarterback throwing dimes all day. Zac pretty much leans on that. Everybody understands. I understand and (there is) going to be a time where I'm going to have to come in and deliver."
PRAISE FOR MIXON
Mixon is no longer under the radar after reaching his first Pro Bowl on career highs with 1,205 yards on 292 carries and 13 touchdowns.
Hilton: "Joe is the best back in the league. He just doesn't get the respect he deserves. You can tell just the impact he has on our team. One, he's a captain, he's always high energy, he's a lot of fun to be around.
"When he sets that tone on the field, the offense and those guys follow. Defensively, we like when that running back is lowering that shoulder … We know when two-eight has that ball in his hand, good things can happen."
'TIGHT END STOPPER'
Earlier in the season, cornerback Tre Flowers was picked up off waivers by the Bengals after being released by Seattle. The 6-3, 203-pound Flowers is a unique chess piece for defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo because of his size.
Hilton: "He's given us everything we asked for. He's kind of like our tight end stopper. If you really see how we use him, against some of the tight ends we've played, he's the guy that's matching those guys and he's been playing well against them. We're excited about every time he's on the field, because we expect him to make a play. He's the guy that we know can go out there and just do his job and help us win."
