The fact that he put up those numbers, and didn’t even have a single turnover worthy throw in a game where he was under siege like that is crazy.
My post to you in the game day thread about the stats is still my take - i.e. take out the two fortunate big plays and Burrow's numbers aren't good.
HOWEVER.... the no INTs stat is a big number that isn't getting mentioned. Burrow had no help from his OLine for a whole half and did not make the mistake which cost the game. A vast number of QBs would've been pressured into a pick or would've gotten desperate. Burrow held it together and ensured he wouldn't throw the game away. Takes some doing when he must have known he'd be getting smacked around every time the ball was snapped. Dude is made of something different.
Yesterday hasn't knocked my confidence in him at all, and I say that as someone who didn't think he was 'on it' yesterday.
