But, how about those throws on the game tying drive. Dear Lord, those were beauties. On at least 2 of them, I remember a defender within millimeters of knocking the ball out of his hand and Burrow not only got the pass off but was dropping dimes like Phillips dropping balls.

If you didn't think Burrow had an elite level ceiling, you HAVE to think that now after that. Oh man, I need to change my underwear after thinking about those passes again.

I REALLY hope they get some more capable bodies to put in front of him going into next year because if/when he gets more time in a clean pocket, its absolutely game over.

I still don't think we've seen his ceiling yet which is crazy to think about. I can't wait to see what he ends up delivering by the time his playing career is over.

Of course with some yahoos in here they took that and turned into the debate  you referenced above.

I like my son's take who agreed that either one would have NOT been a mistake for the Bengals, but he said, and I agree, Herbert is a good fit for LA and Burrow a good fit for Cincinnati.

Lost to the Raiders, Dolphins, Bengals, and Steelers.

They beat the Chiefs by one point and started the Chiefs 4 out of 6 game skid.  

PLUS, handed the Bengals first place by losing to the Browns!

Just saying.

Dude needs to play more like Drew Brees and less like Ben Roethlisberger(in his prime).

Joe Burrow is PFF’s highest graded quarterback in Week 14.

?- 90.6 offensive grade
?- 90.3 passing grade
? - 5 big time throws
? - 14.3% big time throw rate

Including his 84.4% adjusted completion rate, a masterful performance from Burrow was wasted in the #Bengals loss. pic.twitter.com/LswUhCBidf
