Burrow took the team right down the field and threw the end zone pick 6, then took them right down the field and scored. If they hadn't had some of those bad plays, they seemed like they could move the ball at will.  Shot themselves in the foot.  Looking forward to the rematch. 

Yep, and I was saying how Burrow would not have back-to-back "clunkers", but he wasn't that great against the Raiders.  He didn't turn the ball over (save the one bad fumble), and made some huge throws.  

It was a "maturation" game for Burrow (I hate that expression and I just used it).  The Raiders were taking away anything deep with cover-3 shell, and the middle inside was there.  Burrow took a couple shots (that nearly hit) but mostly took what they were giving him and he was lethal accurate on the small stuff.  Boyd was huge. 

Every team will provide different matchups, but this one showed me that Burrow can be patient and not have to always try to get points in one pass, but can work the ball up the field.  

I hope he has a huge game against pitt.
