The Bengals haven't earned that. They start slow every year, we just haven't played them this early yet. So no, I'm not buying that they can just turn it on this week and be in their late season mode.

Burrow hasn't earned that.
Have we reached a point where beating Mahomes in the playoffs
once gets you a lifetime pass? You stay in the 'top 5 QBs' lists because that thing you did that one time?
One season with MVP votes. One. Got badly outplayed by Jake Browning last season. Can't stay healthy. May simply not be physically sound (now or perhaps ever). And has NEVER performed without 2 premier pass-catchers in this lineup.
Why do we keep acting like it's verboten to question whether or not Joe Burrow is a truly premier QB and not just another average guy who's a product of his weapons?
It's silly. DJ Reader has a better track record relative to his position group. Chase certainly does. Higgins does. Shit, Mixon might have.
It's really ridiculous that people keep trying to keep him in the same tier as Mahomes. He's not on that level.
