Joe "Cool" and being elite? Yeah, no.

[mr. tegu]

I admit I realize I have been overestimating him like many others. He is quite good but elite he is not and he definitely hasn't earned his "cool" moniker. And I have heard multiple pundits now say, even after yesterday he is a better QB than Mahomes, but Mahomes is the better player. Talk about moving the goalposts to fit your narrative.

I will give him credit for the Brady comparison though as he has absolutely been carried by his defense and luck like Brady was in his earlier years in winning playoff games. But Burrow isn't as clutch as Brady was even back then.

And for those who think he is even close to Mahomes:

Burrow 0 times 30 point postseason games to Mahomes 8
300 yard games is 1 to 7
TD drives in fourth quarter is a whopping 0 to 14

Good old Nick Wright has more in the video but here is a picture with the most relevant part of Burrow's fourth quarter stats in the postseason. It's remarkable the Bengals have won any games honestly in the postseason.

There's only one Joe Cool, and it ain't the home alone kid

I'm not gonna fault Reggie Miller for not being Michael Jordan. Burrow's an elite player. Maybe one day he will get his ring. Maybe not.

Will be interesting to see what happens with our STs next year.

KC Special Teams had an awesome game last night and I hope they can do it again in a couple weeks!

Conversely, I would have loved to see Mahomes attack with that set of weapons at his disposal.

I get your point BUT as much as I hate Burrow's cocky, disrespecting woke ass attitude he IS AMAZINGLY ACCURATE and definitely takes advantage of it with 3 No.1 WRs.

Agreed. That ball that doinked off the receivers helmet.. chief all over the receiver, receiver is stumbling and twisting and falling and flailing, and yet somehow burrow got it through all that mess and hit him right in the head.
And the chuck it up play style is more the WR's talents (or lack of talents). I'm guessing any QB would rather be throwing to guys with more separation rather than jump balls.

I take nothing away from Burrow, but to even remotely be in the same ballpark as Brady he will have to do more with less. I rail on how Brady has benefited from great defenses, but you give a young Brady those weapons and defense that Burrow has and he wins the SB.

Brady was in the biggest piece of shit division ever. Burrow has some good franchises in their division.

I think when Baltimore gets healthy they will roll the Bengals. Burrow's time is coming to an end. They can't keep Chase, Higgins and Boyd forever.

The difference is you take away Boyd and Burrow goes to shit.

You take away Reek, Juju and Toney and Mahomes wins the AFCCG.

Burrough is TB playing for a small market team, follow with great interest, prediction nothing but pain and tears, culmination one ring and in bed with the nfl

Happy to know he'll be the highest paid QB in the league soon.

Chase deserves to be the highest paid WR. How's that going fit in their budget?
