6-9-1 record
4228 passing yards
27 pass TDs
12 INTs
67% completion
95.3 QB Rating (not ESPN's QBR)
9 fumbles (4 lost)

186 rushing yards
3 rush TDs

4414 total yards
30 total TDs

Pretty good for someone in their first full "season," especially given the OL he had to work with.

Compare that to the QB some around here would rather have.
Justin Herbert's first 16 games (played 15 last year + first game this year)
7-9 record
4673 yards
32 TDs
11 INT
66.5% completion
97.31 QB rating
9 fumbles (6 lost)

233 rush YDS
5 rush TDs

Herbert has the better stats, but barely. It might as well be a draw. Certainly not enough of an edge to make you choose Herbert over Burrow if the draft was redone.
