Joe Burrow VS Justin Herbert
#91
(10-19-2022, 03:29 AM)rfaulk34 Wrote: Time to revisit this because i was sitting around dilly-dallying about on the intrawebz and i realized Joe just finished the 32 game of his career--traditionally 2 full seasons. It also just so happens that Herbert played 32 games in his first 2 years (15 and 17) so i figured i'd spend some time crunching numbers and postulating. 

First off, i'd like to reiterate that both Herbert and Burrow are very good QBs and their respective teams are lucky to have them. Herbert has gotten a lot of attention and it's well deserved with the number of records he's set his first 2 seasons.

Now for the show...

Through their first 32 games, their numbers look like this:
Herbert 839/1267 66.2%  9350 7.4 69/25 97.9
Burrow  782/1152 67.9%  8915 7.7 59/24 99.3

So Herbert had 115 more attempts and with those he completed 57 more passes for 435 more yards, 10 more TDs and 1 more INT.

Burrow's per game averages for those 32 games are 24/36 66.6% 279 7.8 2/1 (TDs and INTs were rounded up from 1.8 and .75 to make it easier). If you add 6 more "average" games to Burrows numbers, to match the 38 games Herbert has played, that gives you
144/216 66.6% 1674 7.8 12/6  (Herberts first 6 games this year, for comparison-- 170/257 66.1% 1716 6.7 10/3). Surprisingly, Burrows stats for the first 6 this year, compared to the "fake" 6 are-- 152/228 66.7% 1616 7.1 12/5 

Add those extra 6 imaginary games to Burrows 32 games played and their career numbers look something like this:
Herbert 1009/1524 66.2% 11066 7.3 79/28 97.1
Burrow   926/1368 67.7%  10589 7.7 71/30 98.9

Same draft class, first round. Numbers on par. Wonder if they can get to the Brady/Manning type of rivalry thing. There's already Mahomes/Allen. It would be kind of crazy to have 2 rivalries like that in the same conference.

Anyway, pretty sure most of those numbers are correct...  Cool

Re-discuss?
Herbert hasn’t had his playoff breakout yet. Iv gotta see that before i decide. He could turn into Andy Dalton in the playoffs for all we know.


Statistically he’s better tho
