I have not seen the numbers recently, but when he got sacked 10 times in the first 2 games he had at least 3 seconds to throw the ball every single time.
But I don't know how much that is going to change. Russell Wilson and Ben Roethlisberger are going to the Hall of Fame, and they both tokk a lot of sacks because they held onto the ball too long.

This may sound like splitting hairs, but he is not a "Superstar". He is a very good QB and I am thrilled to have him, but to this point he may be a "star" but he is no "superstar". He is 9th in QB rating. Andy Dalton was 13th in his second season. Not really a huge difference. But I believe Burrow has a much bigger upside than Dalton. That is why Joe was taken first overall while Andy was a second rounder.
