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.

Rodgers was so bad yesterday that it almost looked like he was throwing that game. He clearly wants out of that organization and if they start him again I’d expect a similar performance more than a renaissance. [Reply]

Conclusion: BWillie is still a tard.
The 25 against Chiefs is also tarnished by a Burrow fumble that directly gave 6 points to the Chiefs on the scoreboard. It was the biggest play of the game, a difference maker to put the Chiefs over the top in that ballgame. [Reply]

Look, I think Burrow is a total choad. But he's been great this year. GREAT.
Lol. Somebody named Jake Browning had better numbers and a better record in that offense last year. No, Burrow’s not the most valuable player in the league. [Reply]
We saw what Mahomes would do with similar talent to the Bengals WR's. He went berserk.
The Chiefs did the right thing and moved money away from the offense to the defense. Mahomes isn't raping faces like before, but he has the juice to win when it really counts.
This will be the third straight year that KC ends the Bengals' season. AFC title game. Week 17 in Arrowhead last year. Laying down for Denver this year.

Better numbers? No he did not.
Burrow is gonna throw like 45 TDs this year. Even if you dismiss his extremely high QB rating which can be fraudulent he has a 77 QBR. To sit here and act like what Burrow is doing is easy and/or not worthy of MVP is ridiculous.
Be unbiased. He's good. Really good. If he was so bad he wouldn't be the only active QB in the league to beat Mahomes in the playoffs.
1. Mahomes
2. Josh Allen
3. Burrow
.......50 feet of crap
4. Lamar Jackson [Reply]

Agreed. But because of that there inherently be consequences for it. He absolutely deserves every dime he is getting, but that also means the team must cut corners to compensate for it. [Reply]

Can't believe that I am agreeing with you twice. Burrow deserves to be strongly considered for MVP with his numbers.
He won't though as QBs are judged by wins. At most his team will have 9 and quite possibly still miss the playoffs. Right or not, he has that holding him back from MVP. [Reply]

What was first-year starter Mahomes' QBR when he threw for 5,000 yards, 50 TDs, 12 INTs, and was a Dee Ford away from beating Brady to go to the Super Bowl?
Of course Burrow is good, but he isn't worthy of holding Mahomes' jock on his best day. [Reply]

You all need to stop. In 2018 you had a better oline and a complimentary running game. Line may have been mid to just above but Bengals line is bottom 2 in the league. Running game you were only 23rd in att but you were 16th in yds, 7th in TDs and 6th in YPA. Bengals are 30th in att, 29th in yds, 23rd in TDs and 20th in YPA. YPA keeps the chains moving better.
You were 24/27 on FGs. Bengals are 21/29. I don't know how many game winning and ending FGs you missed (if any) but the Bengals have missed 2, 1 resulted in a loss, 1 didn't.
Burrow is doing almost as much as Pat, numbers-wise, but he doesn't have the support around him that Pat did.

Pretty similar actually. You don't get much higher than 80/100 QBR for a season. Lamar in 2019 has the highest QBR of any of these guys. Here's the list of QBR seasons above 75/100 for the group:
2019 Lamar Jackson = 83.0/100
2018 Patrick Mahomes = 80.3/100
2022 Patrick Mahomes = 79.0/100
2020 Patrick Mahomes = 78.1/100
2024 Lamar Jackson = 77.9/100
2019 Patrick Mahomes = 77.7/100
2024 Josh Allen = 76.8/100
2024 Joe Burrow = 76.7/100
2020 Josh Allen = 76.6/100 [Reply]

Obviously I wasn’t comparing to Burrow’s stats this year. Browning had arguably better numbers than Burrow last year and won more games.
Could you see a scrub like Browning matching or surpassing Mahomes’ production and wins on this team?
And your Lamar Jackson take is absolutely pathetic. You should be embarrassed. [Reply]
