How do we know he doesn't put up even bigger numbers with QB's who were actually elite last year (Rodgers, Mahomes, Watson, etc.)?
How do we know he doesn't put up comperable numbers with middle of the road QB's (Derek Carr, Matt Stafford, Ryan Tannenhill, etc.)?
The answer is that we don't know any of those these things, and it's silly to think that Joe Burrow elevated Tee Higgins to another level that most QB's would not have.
Yeah, Tee isn’t the type of WR I’d consider needing to be “elevated.” He was really good in college, too (although he had another great QB in Lawrence).
Now if Burrow starts making scrubs like Mike Thomas or Stanley Morgan look good...
