That said, I do think Burrow could end up being better. Mahomes completely wilted against Tampa when his OL wasn’t good: Burrow otoh beat a Titans team in the playoffs while being sacked a record 9x.
I agree. Burrow is our guy, so some of these positions are understandable but Burrow doesn't have the resume to claim he is better than Mahomes, yet. One way to think about it is if Burrow had accomplished what Mahomes has (MVP, OPOY, AP, SB Victory, SB MVP, the fantastic statistical seasons) and another team with a young hotshot QB claimed their guy was better, the collective Bengals fanbase would just say "lol k".
I do think he will get there. Burrow may not be as flashy as Mahomes, but he has all of the ability to be better. He's just young.
