On most furnaces the blower continues to run as long as there is heat stored in the heat exchanger. In milder weather the burner comes on before the blower does and the blower stays on after the burner has turned off. In your case the burner may be cycling off and on but the cycles are so short that the heat exchanger never gets cool enough for the blower to turn off. That will make it seem as if the furnace is never turning off.
