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.

The Chiefs winning destroyed that so now they are here just trotting out basic opinions(hair-splitting) and acting like they what they are saying is 100% Gospel truth. They honestly need to shut the F up and respect their league's Champion.
The butt-hurt on Social Media has been fantastic - especially TikTok :-) [Reply]

And that article is looking at Burrow at LSU, no? :-)
It was the QBs coming out in the 2020 draft. [Reply]

Their latest spin is that Mahomes supposedly has more weapons than Burrow.
Burrow has had the best group of WR’s in the NFL the past three years. :-)
Last year we beat the Bengals with 4 of our top 6 receivers out and Mahomes throwing to guys that were essentially practice squad players. This year we doubled down on it and played the entire season with those receivers and still won the Super Bowl. [Reply]

You forgot the hopping around on one leg part, too. [Reply]

"No evidence" other than this.
Trigger Time
Now, I only just started looking at the idea of “trigger time” last year, but I think it might be the most important of the three metrics covered in this analysis. Again, this is measuring the amount of time it takes a QB to start their throwing motion after they’ve locked on a target. This provides insight into how a quarterback sees the field and how quickly they process information. Additionally, the less time a QB stares down their target before a throw, the less time a DB has to react to the pass. And it’s this trait that makes Joe Burrow absolutely special.
Mahomes is smart, has a stong arm, is very elusive and knows right where everyone is supposed to be and studies film to identify pressure and coverages well. He's not as smart, nor as good at reading a defense pre and post snap, as Burrow is. It's an undeniable fact.
:-)... Burrow gets the ball against the Niners in regulation liek Mahomes he's not tying the game, and definitely not winning it in OT. He's had his chances to do that and failed many times. Oh, and don't say the 2021 AFCCG, the one where the ball bounced off of Tyreek in OT and you kicked a FG... [Reply]

To a bengals fan being 3-1 versus Mahomes means as much to as the Chiefs being 3-1 in the SUPER BOWL means to a Chiefs fan. It’s first thing on Burrows resume.
Their entire argument that Burrow is better than Mahomes rest entirely on the Burrows record against him. That alone should tell you who the better qb is. Because why would Burrows record against Mahomes matter so much if Mahomes wasn’t the best qb in the league?
Baker is 3-1 against Burrow. So that destroys their entire head to head argument. [Reply]
