'Better send those refunds': Joe Burrow sends message about NFL's foiled neutral-site plan
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow got a chance to be the first to react to spoiling the NFL's plan to have a potential neutral-site AFC title game in Atlanta between the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs - which won't happen after the Bengals' 27-10 divisional-round win Sunday in Buffalo.
CBS sideline reporter Tracy Wolfson asked Burrow on the field after the game about "everyone talking about a neutral AFC Championship game, not even thinking about you guys."
Burrow's response: "Better send those (ticket) refunds."
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported last week via Twitter that more than 50,000 tickets were purchased by season-ticket holders of the Bills and Chiefs in the first 24 hours for the "if-needed, neutral-site AFC Championship game."
The Bengals' official account got in on the fun:
Make sure y’all get that refund 👀

Same round, same place.
The Bengals and Chiefs will meet in the AFC Championship for the second straight year, the 7th instance of two teams meeting for the conference title in consecutive seasons and the first since Ravens-Patriots in 2011-12. pic.twitter.com/R6m7lYypFW— ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) January 22, 2023

Joe Burrow lost the first two December starts of his NFL career last year.
He hasn’t lost one in December OR January since.
Today’s Divisional Playoff win gives @joeyb a 13-game December/January winning streak.
Overall, he last lost on Halloween 2022. pic.twitter.com/h4cTEDqq39— Rich Eisen (@richeisen) January 22, 2023
