I responded that if what he has shown so far proves he could win a Super Bowl then 95% of the QBs in the league could win a Super Bowl.

If you agree with that then we have no debate.

I think 95% of NFL QB's could win a Super Bowl and it has been shown over history. The key is having a dominant OL and dominant defense.

I think the real question is can Joe Burrow or any NFL QB take a good and not great team and carry them on their back to win a Super Bowl.

Joe Flacco is not and never was an elite QB, but he had an elite defense and he got hot at the right time and played over his head of what we have seen in his entire career.

Eli Manning got lucky also, got hot at right moments and had a stellar team around him. Also had WR bail him out with nothing short of a spectacular catch at the right moment.

A look back in history shows many good and not elite QB's who have won it all (Brad Johnson & others).

So, if you give Burrow a Raven's defense the year Flacco won it, yep no doubt Joe has already shown he could win it. If given the Bear's defense the year McMahon won the SB, yep these guys showed average to good QB's could manage a Super Bowl win.
