Dominant*
And where's the poll?
EDIT* Ah, there it is!
Burrow, 100%
Everyone else you mentioned had an excellent game, Tufele wants it.
SECOND EDIT* It's, Davis-Gaither, not Geathers

Burrow for the win. Dude facilitated the ball to a lot of playmakers and ran for a score.

Joey B will win but Tyler Boyd had two spectacular catches and a TD so I'm voting for him.

Clearly Joey B.
But outside of one defensive play and (I thought) one 4th down playcall, this was a pretty complete game.
Performance of a contender. Hope it continues.

Burrow, but really this could have had a choice for "all of the above".

I was on Boyd for the very beginning but Burrow snatched it from him.

Zac handed out game balls to almost everyone. The defense, Burrow, Hurst, Chase, Boyd. OL received one in spirit. He said the OL would be insulted to receive one
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.

Burrow, easily.
Chase had 130 yds and 2 tds, so him and Boyd are my two honorable mentions.

Are we really becoming so spoiled by Chase that he’s not even a poll option in a game where he had 130 yards and 2 TD’s? :lol:
Anyway, it obviously Burrow. Sure the Falcons secondary was banged up but he still went out there and put on a master class today. If there’s a better QB in the league right now at that back shoulder throw he makes I haven’t seen him.

I thought this would be Burrow's breakout game. Great game by both Boyd and Chase but had to vote for Burrow
on his REAL breakout game with 481 yards, 4 TD's and that passer rating. Great job by the Offense finally playing
like I thought they would, gonna go watch the game now as all I saw of it was the first half highlights.
4-3 baby. Happy Dey!!!

TB was more than deserving & is literally Mr. clutch but I had to vote Burrow. Scorching hot... Shout out to Chase, Hurst & Hilton.
Defense continues to shine.
I thought Zac called a good game.

That terrible retreat behind the first down line that resulted in that botched 4th down sequence knocks his performance down a bit in in my eyes, especially considering the TD was just a blown coverage.
