Biggest heartbreaking season at mid point?

Week 1-3: 5 TD/1 INT, 89.0 QB Rating
Week 4-6: 1 TD/3 INT, 79.7 QB Rating

I think Burrow will be fine and turn out great, but the idea that he's improved every week just isn't based in reality.


Star is a bit generous for a part time role player who only made 16 total tackles in 482 defensive snaps (plus another 157 on ST). He was a good pass rushing specialist, but even PFF (if you put any stock into that, but I would understand if you didn't) graded him at 64.8 overall in 2017.

Even in 2018 before getting hurt he only had 1 sack and 6 total tackles in 7 games.

Using straight up stats misses the big picture.  A TD taken away week 1 by a BS penalty.  A TD taken away from his TE by an unbelievable INT by the Jax LB over Sample in the end zone.  Right now, if this team had a defense that was even middle of the road (which, healthy, I believe they could have been) and with Green playing more up to form from week 1, I think they could compete with any team.  

It's ok, it is a stupid argument anyways because it is totally subjective.  I made a statement that we have a QB that can win a Super Bowl because that is what I believe I have seen from the guy.  No point debating it.
