"Clutch"

I would agree. Big moments can happen throughout the game. There are absolutely times where you need your QB to step up and make something happen in the second or third quarter. For instance, in the big regular season KC/CIN game from 2021, the game was 21-7 early in the second quarter. We needed a response or the game was going to be getting out of hand. There were people on this board saying the game was already over, the Bengals were a fraud, KC is just way better etc. etc. 

Burrow responds by going 5-6 for 60 yards and a TD to cut it to 21-14. And you know what the Chiefs did afterwards? Scored again to make it 28-14. If the Bengals would have punted on that drive and gone down 28-7, that's a massive difference. I would have been thinking game over at that point. However, Burrow and the offense stepped up when they needed to and made it happen. That is clutch play in my eyes.
