The month of November also saw Burrow make NFL history by becoming the first player to record at least 50 passing attempts, 350 passing yards and three touchdown passes while throwing zero interceptions in consecutive games.
Here’s a look at Burrow’s performances in November (The Bengals played three games that month as they also had a bye):

Against the Steelers, Burrow enjoyed another prolific outing, going 28 of 38 for 309 yards with three touchdowns and an interception.
