Macaulay Culkin dresses as Joe Burrow for Halloween

Since Joe Burrow entered the NFL, the jokes went around social media about how much he looked like Macaulay Culkin. One day before Halloween, the Home Alone actor turned the tables.

Culkin dressed as Burrow for Halloween, posting pictures on social media and tagging the former LSU star. It brings the memes and jokes full circle as the actor leans into the comparisons and told Burrow “Game on.”

Of course, the jokes about Burrow’s resemblance to Culkin grew louder once his hair grew in after he dyed it. Now, we have a photo of Culkin in Bengals gear to put in the posts.

Burrow and the Bengals have had an up-and-down start to the season, falling to 3-5 with last week’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. It continues a trend for Cincinnati over the last few years as the franchise looks to return to the playoffs after missing the postseason last year.

Last year, Cincinnati went 9-8 to miss the playoffs after winning back-to-back AFC North titles. That’s why Joe Burrow said getting to 10 wins is important this season, and the schedule could provide some opportunities to get there. With the Las Vegas Raiders coming to town on Sunday, he called it a must-win to keep the postseason hopes alive.

“You go to 3-6, then you’ve got to basically win out to get in. So the urgency is very high every week from here on out,” Burrow said, via Bengals.com’s Geoff Hobson. “The crowd’s been loud in the right spots. It’s a smart crowd. They know when to be quiet, when to get loud. Obviously, we’d like to get a win in front of them.

“We always appreciate their support. They always show out in the big games and come out and support us every single week. So we’ve got to go out and put on a show, do what we need to do to get a win at home.”
