It's hard to ignore elite arm strength. Burrow has been much better throwing it deep this year, but he's still underthrowing on quite a few where Chase has to slow down for them. Better mechanics can only add so much.
(Also from a pure talent standpoint, Watson wasn't a bad trade idea. Just didn't know about all the off the field troubles at the time. Bullet dodged. Lol)
Brady
Montana
Peyton
Probably the best 3 QBs of all-time, and none of them were known for their arm. Also, Burrow is hitting deep throws just as well as Herbert, and Burrow is killing Herbert on mid-range throws.
Herbert is only better on short throws this year, and he's throwing a ton of them. Yet his comp % is 5 points lower than Burrow's. That's pretty telling, IMO.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
