Well, the guy is putting up big numbers, and as of this morning he has a completion percentage of around 80 percent. 80% in a pass-happy offense. Still a lot of football left to be played, but four games in it certainly catches the eye.
I'd be curious to know the quality of that completion percentage (I haven't watched much of Burrow this season, so I truly don't have anything to speak on). Last year, Haskins led the nation by a large margin on yardage obtained off of screen passes. He also primarily threw shorter than 10 yards, easy crossing routes and stuff. This can lead to gaudy stats that look nice but really don't show much to the QB skills.
