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.
Burrow is a great young QB. That said, somebody seriously needs to break him of that spin move crap in the pocket. If you have time to spin, you have time to get the ball out. Turning your back to your receivers forces you to have to refocus and find your guys again when you get your head back around. That means the OL has to hold up even longer when they're already in trouble.
Dude needs to play more like Drew Brees and less like Ben Roethlisberger(in his prime).
