Palmer v Burrow

['E']

What Burrow displayed at LSU, was an energy that winning was the only option for him and he did that by example. Burrow is not a screamer as far as I can tell, but he does not give up on plays easily and will often choose to give his teammates a chance to make a play rather than taking the safe route on nearly every play. I think that teammates knowing that he is back there looking to extend a play will follow suit by staying on their blocks longer and looking to get open to give him a target to throw to. I think that part of Dalton's issues here was that Gruden beat it into his head to get the ball out as soon as possible which led to more throws out of bounds which in turn, led to receivers giving up on plays sooner because one way or another the ball was going to be out in x amount of time. Burrow also radiates confidence, and I think that players gravitate towards that and feed off of it as long as the guy with said confidence can back it up with results. Palmer lived mostly on his physical gifts while Burrow is stronger on the intangibles.
It will be interesting to see how Burrow translates to the NFL game.
