Burrow's five straight TD drives came when Bengals ditched under-center for shotgun.

Burrow thrived when the Bengals abandoned their under-center emphasis and let him operate almost exclusively from shotgun in the second half. He ran just 13% of his plays from under-center during the second half and produced five straight touchdown drives. The source emphasizes that shotgun play-calling is what Burrow does best—scanning the field from out of shotgun—and the Bengals' decision to lean into this strength generated big play after big play during the second half.
