He may not even be the best QB in the 2020 class and I'm not talking Herbert. If Hurts wins a Superbowl, then the debate is over. Hurts would have likely locked up the MVP as well if he didn't miss 2 games. It's just how the cookie crumbles for the Bengals. Better root for KC if you don't want to hear about Hurts being the darling and steal of the draft.

Oy, I didn't even think of that.  I'll be amazed if Burrow doesn't win a SB here, but at the same time it's pretty standard for the first QB taken to win fewer SBs than a QB taken later in his class by an organization that has, and I can't believe the Eagles finally qualify for this, won the SB before.

Anyways, we know the Eagles would trade Burrow for Hurts in a second so it's just noise noise noise.  That's the blessing and curse of that 1st overall pick QB...he's gotta win and win a lot because people can always say "Well, you could have had (other QB taken later) and a bunch of picks, instead."
