I just feel like everyone is going to spend all week talking about Mahomes' ankle or Burrow being a Demigod or Chase against this young secondary or Lou Anarumo being a psychopath...and then in the end it's just going to Samaje Perine bludgeoning Bolton and Gay to death.
I've seen some of you silly nillies talking about how Browning looked "just as good" as Burrow and "system qb blahblahblah" in several threads so i'll just go ahead and address it here, since someone already bumped this.
In the 5 games Burrow appeared healthy enough to move around in and run out of the pocket, Ari-Hou, he completed 74% of his passes for 296 ypg, 12 tds and 4 ints for a 107 passer rating, going 4-1.
In his 6 best games, not including his very first start against Pitt, Jax-Cle, Browning completed 71% of his passes for 274 ypg, 10 tds and 6 ints for a 99.5 rating, going 4-2.
Now i need someone to come in here and tell me that a higher comp%, 22 more ypg, 2 more tds, 2 less ints and a difference of 8 pts in passer rating 'isn't that much different'. And he did that in one less game. But they were the same.

Ok, not "the same." How about... Burrow was marginally better. When you compare how much money the two make, the numbers should jump off the page. 3% better completion percentage? 22 more yards per game? Heh. That's well within the margin of error for the fact they didn't play the same teams. [Reply]
