If the Cincinnati Bengals beat the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LVI, Joe Burrows could become the first quarterback to win the Heisman Trophy, the National Championship, and the Super Bowl title.
Burrow revealed his earliest Super Bowl memory this week.
"What I really remember was when the Cardinals were playing the Steelers and Big Ben made that amazing throw on the back pylon," Burrow told reporters via the Bengals' team site.
The Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Arizona Cardinals 27–23 in Super Bowl XLIII in 2009. Ben Roethlisberger hits a throw to Santonio Holmes for the win. Somehow, Holmes kept his toes inside for the score. It was Roethlisberger's second Super Bowl title.
Burrow said he favored Kurt Warner of Arizona to get his second ring that night.
"Kurt Warner was always a family friend," Burrow said. "My father was actually on the Iowa Barnstormers staff when Kurt was quarterback. My family has known Kurt for a long time, so we were excited to have Kurt in that position."
