There are ugly wins in football — and apparent ugly quarterbacks, too.
Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is the desire of many. As the saying goes, men want to be him, ladies may want to be alongside him.
That much was evidenced in a viral video that surfaced in November, when a woman — a bit woozy following a wisdom tooth extraction — maybe admitted that she was more attracted to his ambitions than his looks.
On Monday night's "Manningcast," Burrow was shown the video, and had a pretty funny response to the entire ordeal:
"It sounds like I'm being called ugly??" 😂

"It sounds like I'm being called ugly there, if you ask me," Burrow said. "I could be wrong." …
"Yes, I am ambitious," Burrow also pointed out.
Burrow's ambitions will probably lead him to a Super Bowl win when all is said and done, and he's playing like he wants a ring this year. Burrow's 85.9 PFF passing grade is tied for third highest in the NFL this season, and his 27 touchdowns are second to just Patrick Mahomes.
Yes, Joe Burrow is still one of the best quarterbacks the NFL has to offer. Best looking? That's for you to decide.
