What Are Burrow's MVP Chances?

And the deep bomb against Arizona was the longest air pass of Burrow’s career, so they weren’t all short. That was the first game he really started looking like himself again (although I don’t think he was fully back until SF).

Needing a bare minimum competence/health QB who isn't one of the two worst QBs in the league (he was at the bottom with Bryce Young in pretty much everything early on) in order for a WR to take over games is not evidence for the QB not needing the WR. I could go out there at QB and I pretty much guarantee I would suck enough that Chase wouldn't get any catches, that doesn't mean that if I could actually get the ball to him I wouldn't be a Chase Merchant. Again, I don't think Burrow is carried by Chase, but your logic on this just seems really off man.

Burrow started the season something like 1/17 or 1/23 on passes further than 10 yards past the LoS.
