If he doesn't have the 2 INTs for sure but Perine manned his way to all 3 TDs.
Debated between Perine and Higgins because he finally showed he's an obvious #1 WR

Neither interceptions were on Burrow.

Tee has always been a #1. Just not a high end #1.

Tipped ball caused an errant pass on one interception and TJ Watt with an a great deflection into an interception on the other.
Neither interception were a bad throw or bad read. Not on Burrow.

Considering the freak play that TWatt had one the 1, hard to consider that one against the QB even if the stats showed it. The batted play was just a good D stop.

I'm of the opinion if the other team is the first one to touch the pass then it's on the QB.
Not to say they were bad passes but the INTs are on him. I'm sure he owns them
WTS, Burrow had a great game and is deserving of any Game Ball consideration

I disagree but neither of them were terrible INTs. But had two of them none the less and I thought Perine made all 3 of his TDs vs it being random flukes where he got left wide open.

Of course it could have been Burrow, but it could be him every week we win. I voted Perine. It's special when a player comes off the bench and has that kind of game.
Really, all of the nominees are deserving. They had no answer for Tee. Pratt was a beast all game, and Hendrickson had 2 sacks.
But here are some other guys that deserve mention. Chrisman, 50 yard average in a game where field position was crucial, plus flawless holding. Shooter McPherson, back to his old self. Trenton Irwin, 44 yards receiving and solid job on punt returns. Jonah, who kept Hayward at bay. La'el, for a decent performance against TWATT. And Boyd, who somehow was never targeted till the 4th quarter. I appreciate a guy who doesn't pout, stays engaged, and gets it done when he's called on.
GREAT WIN

Burrow for keeping focus after having so many balls batted down and under pressure all night and still being money.
But if Joe did not do so well Perine, Pratt and Higgins were all great candidates.
Was wondering if they forgot how well those swing passes to Perine were working in the 2nd half until they finally got it to him again for another great TD.
Pratt was a beast and we really needed it today. CTB coming along as well. Hendrickson and Huber battled all night too.
Joe Burrow for my vote though.

Is Joe supposed to block defensive linemen and get their hands down before he throws?

Trent Irwin needs to stay on the 53 even when Chase comes back imo

I went with Joseph Lee Burrow.
That d-line is a menace to society. He overcame a stretch where it looked like they were going to dominate for the rest of the game.
He also showed that he just may be the kind of quarterback that can make average weapons productive. Irwin's production and Perine's big game made it seem like he can get it done with guys that are a bit lower on the depth chart. it makes it even more promising that he did it against a very stout defense.

Eh, hard for me to fault Burrow on either one of those picks. Neither was a case of a bad read or an inaccurate throw. The Watt one in particular was just a ridiculous play by an All World player.
It is pretty annoying that an Edge rusher has better hands than any of our CB’s though. Eli had another one today go right through his hands.

He did get some pretty nice blocks though. I think it was Volson that got upfield in a hurry on the one TD.

Joe seems to have quite a few balls batted down at the line. I know there was some discussion on him having small hands, but maybe he could learn to pump fake once in a while.

I went with Burrow, that last scoring drive was clutch as hell. 2 fluke picks and it just doesn’t phase him. Unflappable.
It's easy to see the world in black and white. Grey? I don't know what to do with grey.
