I associate the game manager idiom as meaning he is a QB with statistically average numbers compared to his peers or is unspectacular with his style of play; a game manager QB likely relies on a stout defense or top-notch running game to win games.

Burrow's NFL passing numbers compared to his peers:

Completion % - 1st
Yards gained per pass attempt - 1st
Average yards gained per pass attempt - 1st
QB Rating - 2nd
Yards gained per game - 3rd
Yards - 6th
TDs - 8th

Burrow is an NFL elite QB based on individual stats. He's not a game manager.

Are you talking about the playoffs? Or in general? I don't think he is a game manager as QB in general. Has he been in the playoff tho in my opinion....

I think we have been very conservative and safe on offense in the playoffs. I think this playoff run has been all about the Defense and Evan.

Don't let some of the other posters twist my words and have you thinking I think he is a career game manager.
