Hot take that really shouldn't be that hot: Burrow has outplayed Rodgers.
Burrow is completing a higher % of throws (70.3%) than Aaron (68.6%).
The attempts are virtually the same (520 to 513), yet Joe has a whopping 634 more yards.
TDs are the same (34 to 35)
The only thing Rodgers beats Burrow on is fewer INTs, but that's at a cost. He's making way fewer big plays than Burrow. OK, maybe "outplayed" is strong, but I'd say it's equal at least. More big plays but more INTs.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
