The comparisons are stupid. It’s not even a discussion until/unless Burrow wins a Super Bowl.

Even then it wouldn't be a discussion. Marino never won a superbowl but who would argue he wasn't one of the greats? Team game and all

Oh you and I and most people here would agree. But the truth is, if Burrow beats us twice in the AFC Championship game (I don’t really GAF about regular season meetings) and then wins a Super Bowl, a lot of people are going to start saying he’s the best QB in football. They would be wrong, but it will be said.

That's the narrative for sure. Burrow has been blessed with a pretty dang good defense, which has allowed only 18 points per game in the Playoffs the last 2 seasons. That level of output is similar to the #1 or #2 defense in the regular season for both 2021 and 2022 seasons.

I wonder what Burrow's playoff record might be if his defense gave up 25 points per game in the playoffs, which is what has been happening with both the Chiefs & Bills for years. Burrow's offense averages 23 points per game in the playoffs.

Using some rough math and recollection, I think he’d be a very average 3-3 in that scenario

Yeah, 3-3 seems about right. It would be epic if KC can drop a monster number on the Cincy defense this Sunday. They gotta be sharper though against a very good defense.

I think the comparisons of the two QB’s are crazy.

I get that he beat Mahomes 4 times yadda yadda

Guess who else beat Burroughs this year ? Kenny Picket who will out of the league in 3-5 years
Smoked brisset beat him on the browns , Lamar Jackson , dak , Daniel jones and kyler video game Murray

So are we saying these guys are better than Burrough? I mean many have only played him once so they have lock set match done . Of course they are not better .

Football is 11 guys on offense and 11 on defense plus special teams

Mahomes plays cinci’s defense , burroughs plus our defense , which is a tougher D? No question about it cinci wins . Offense besides have a great tight end and a bunch of jags the Bungels have three amazing WR and a really good TE.

If Mahomes had cincis team right now he would throw for 7k yards this year and 60 plus TD

If it was a singles match in tennis I get it but Mahomes is soooooooooomich better it’s not even funny
