He will wow you and then disappoint you in the span of two plays. That said, he is a very physically gifted QB that looks like he will slow the game down and get better. I have been impressed with him, but I would still put Burrow above him due to his accuracy. Overall, if we are judging two/three games in, Burrow looks better but they both look like they will be able to play high-level football in the NFL.

I understand what you are saying about college but we also thought Burrow would be making bigger plays downfield from his college performance and that has not transformed just yet... Short window but Herbert is at a 70% clip with completion rate which is impressive..  I think both have played well as rookies overall so far.
