Can you say elite?

Those QB School videos are so great as well, showing the nuances of his game.  The touch, the accuracy, the efficiency of movement, the athletic mobility.  And the ice in his veins, like that last 1st down throw on Sunday.  He's going to be great to watch for many years to come.

I think I remember people pointing out back in the day with Dalton that QBs 3rd season in the NFL is when QBs generally improve the most. I think it was Bfine who posted the stats about that. I know at least for Dalton his 3rd season was one of his better seasons (obviously 15 was his best, but there was a big spike in his play IMO his 3rd season). I wasn't really surprised that Burrow took another step this year, and I really don't think that we'll see any kind of regression in the future. Hopefully Burrow will finally have a full healthy offseason. 2020 offseason started off wacky because of covid, 2021 obviously he was recovering and 2022 he had his appendectomy. Crazy to think that he has yet to have a full healthy offseason.
