Not a hater. Just not homering it up for some dude who plays in Los Angeles.

I was just pointing out that Herbert does lead Burrow in some statistics.
Not only do I really like Burrow, but I think he was the far safer choice.
Herbert has the measurables but definitely had some things that needed to be worked on to play like he is.
I was worried he was gonna be another Mariota.
Apologies if my post came across a bit terse. I'm just frustrated that we seem to have a segment of people on here (not you) that is infatuated with a guy on a different team putting up worse stats than our guy.
As I've already explained, the efficiency stats all favor Joey B.
The bulk stats *barely* favor Herbert, and that wouldn't be the case had Joe not skipped the last game.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
