Joe Burrow is known for being cool, clam, and collected in big moments. He's already won an NCAA National Championship and led the Cincinnati Bengals to the Super Bowl last year. Burrow recently revealed how a certain level of ‘arrogance' helps him in high level moments, per Ben Baby.

“Bengals QB Joe Burrow on playing with confidence: ‘You can’t be scared in the moment.' Said playing at a high level in those moments requires a certain amount of arrogance,” Baby wrote on Twitter.

Burrow and the Bengals enjoyed a strong regular season that saw them finish with a 12-4 record. They are currently preparing to host the Baltimore Ravens in the Wild Card round of the NFL Playoffs.

In addition to having home field advantage against Baltimore, the Bengals are in the driver's seat given the Ravens' QB uncertainty. Both Lamar Jackson and backup Tyler Huntley are facing injury concerns. The Ravens are hopeful that at least one of them will be available for the game.
