Exactly, Sled.  What Burrow is doing in his first 18 games (?) thus far is incredible.  He didn't get to sit a year.  He had COVID take away a lot of his live practice and preseason games.  In fact, he hasn't played in a single preseason game.  This, all on top of a devastating knee injury that ended his rookie campaign prematurely.

If the defense rose up and forced even a couple punts, I think that game becomes a shootout.  

One thing about Burrow, and he did this against the steelers on the road coming off a horrible loss:  He never has back-to-back clunkers.  He always adjusts and comes back even more determined.  

Maybe he will make a liar out of me with a clunker at Vegas, but I really doubt it.  I am very confident in Joe.  My biggest fear right now is Chido being able to play off the COVID list.  I believe he is vaccinated, but they really need that guy.
