We'll never know the reason Burrow played what will hopefully be the worst game of his career. So every additional reason to try to excuse his performance is just that, excuses.
We've seen Burrow have awful performances (not this bad) without bad whether. Just because some factors like weather, not being 100% healthy, not much preseason time etc may be present doesn't mean it's still not on Burrow.
As much as some (not necessarily you) like to act like Burrow is flawless, he does have weaknesses to his game. Maybe this was just a perfect storm of factors but they were on full effect against the Browns.
