The Browns have a strong track record against Burrow, boasting a solid 6-1 record against him since the 2020 season. Garrett, in particular, has been a thorn in Burrow’s side, racking up sacks and QB hits in previous matchups. When asked about that past success, Garrett was quick to deflect personal credit, focusing instead on the team’s overall defensive effort. “It’s not just about me. We’ve had great game plans, and everyone on defense has done their part. I expect nothing different this time.”
Despite some criticisms, Garrett’s remarks were largely focused on strategic preparation rather than disrespect. He highlighted Burrow’s resilience and ability to make quick reads under pressure, noting that while the Bengals quarterback might face challenges, he remains a formidable opponent. “You can’t ever count him out. He’s one of those guys who can hurt you even when things aren’t going his way, so we’ve got to stay sharp the whole game,” Garrett said.
The stakes are high for both teams heading into this AFC North showdown. The Browns are looking to build on their momentum and secure an important division win, while the Bengals aim to rebound from a slow start to the season. With playoff implications already on the line, this matchup is expected to be fierce from start to finish.
