Bengals Owner Mike Brown Reacts to Joe Burrow's Championship Window Comment

The 26-year-old is eligible for a contract extension this offseason.

CINCINNATI — Joe Burrow recently said the Bengals' championship window will extend well beyond this season. 

"The window is my whole career," Burrow said earlier this month. "Everybody that we have in that locker room, all the coaches we have. Things are going to change year-to-year, but our window is always open."

Dan Hoard asked Bengals owner Mike Brown about Burrow's comment and mentioned the fact that most people believe having a quarterback on a rookie contract is the best time to win a championship. 

"He's gonna have a long career. We certainly want it to be here," Brown said on the Bengals Booth Podcast. "I think his window will extend over his whole career. But there is the fact that when you don't have to pay the quarterback some extraordinary amount, that that leaves room to pay other players more and therefore you can keep more players that are good players. That's what people are referring to there. But (Patrick) Mahomes and others of that like—they seem to make it go, even after they have gotten their pay day."

Burrow completed 68.3% of his passes for 4,475 yards and a team record 35 touchdowns this season. He also led Cincinnati to back-to-back AFC North titles for the first time in team history. 

The 26-year-old is eligible for a contract extension this offseason and it would be surprising if the Bengals didn't get something done prior to the 2023-24 campaign.
