It's one thing to be able to walk in a a straight line and ask if you're good enough to play. They don't want those answers, they will just say "everyone plays hurt throughout the year" but if he can't do the things we list, he is not worth it to us and we need someone else to play that spot for now lol. Post hip labrum tear I took almost a year to gain confidence to try and run again, I'm no pro athlete but there was definitely a mental block for me. It'd be nice to know Burrow can still run 21 mph, that is a major confidence booster for him and I think we can see he knows he can't do that and it shows.
Can we actually win games without Burrow? Can other teams win without their starting QB? Ravens have Lamar and they win without Lamar, their coaching staff is better. I always hear people say if your star QB goes down the season is over.
Having Burrow run a MPH test is a great idea I would settle for 19 or 20 MPH he does not need to hit his max. I bet he has not pushed it close to 15 MPH most overweight DT can run Burrow down right now and everyone knows he can outrun fast DE and juke with the best of them when healthy.
I think we can with our players and a backup QB. But Zac has been told he is riding Burrows coattails for so long I think he believes it. It could be true since he refuses to run the ball and stay one dimensional.
