I wonder of Burrow is getting to the point where he's achieved let-the-line-hold status to protect a league superstar. The Chiefs held like crazy to protect Mahomes in the last game and didn't get called for much of anything. It was actually kind of blatant, because I generally don't notice that sort of thing unless it's really out of hand.
I hate to sound conspiratorial, but I worry that the league will do a lot to get Mahomes and his star power into the Super Bowl. Jimmy G is not a superstar and Stafford, as great as he is, still doesn't have the same recognition of a Brady/Mahomes/Rodgers/Allen. Mahomes is their last shot at having a bigtime household name in the showcase.
I'm biased, but I feel like they need to just realize that Burrow is a household name now and let him continue his ascent.
