Like you said, if this gets done next week before the season, it's all water un the bridge anyways. If it doesn't get don't I do think that's cause for concern. But we've seen the recent blue print deals that his peers Herbert and Hurts made this year. We know the history of the Bengals paying their QBs. So I think it does raise some questions about what Burrow would be asking for that's different from the other deals. Obviously this is all hypothetical though and if the deal gets done its moot.
Agree, I am sure the deal gets done before the opener, but at the same time if it doesn't it should only hurt the organization's
pocket book so that is just extra motivation to get it done for them. Burrow shouldn't fret at all, he just will get a bigger contract
next Offseason if the FO doesn't get it done which I find unlikely.
Regardless, Burrow will not sit out. He is all about ball and sitting out is just not Joe Burrow.
