Joe Burrow put on a PERFORMANCE in Week 7 👏 @Gatorade https://t.co/vPWXqY3qcc Via @NFL on X

What happened: Joe Burrow completed 14 of 16 passes after halftime in Week 7 of the 2026 regular season. The outing continued his Sunday turn atop Cincinnati's slate for Week 7.

Why it matters: The second-half efficiency kept Burrow one back of the league passing-touchdown lead alongside Brock Purdy behind Kirk Cousins. His deep-ball production has separated him in the 2026 regular-season race through seven weeks.

By the numbers: Second half Week 7: 14-of-16, 232 yards, 3 TDs. 2026: leads NFL with five deep touchdowns. 2025 with Bengals (8 games): 173-of-259 for 1,809 yards, 17 TDs, 5 INTs.

What to watch: Watch whether Burrow closes the one-score gap in the passing-touchdown race in Week 8. His deep-ball volume remains the swing factor.
