I feel if I were to ask Burrow the exact same question he'd say "Don't hold, give me a chance to make a play".
WTS, I'll concede "Borderline elite" may have been a bit of hyperbole. He's shown he can be "borderline very good".
The injuries are a valid concern, but lots of LTs get banged up.
As far as long-term I feel it comes down to 2 things:
Price
What Burrow wants
Well, I'll never question the competitiveness of any QB and especially Burrow but I know what I've witnessed over the years watching football and especially with a QB that is a MVP candidate, has already had a significant injury AND, more importantly regarding the elephant in the room, with a team that I have absolutely ZERO confidence if we had to go to the backup QB.
Give me a really solid backup that can keep you in 3-4 games and win those games then I might feel a tad differently.You gotta be able to sometimes just live another play.
