If you protect Burrow he will pick you apart with average WRs. Mahommes does not have a single elite WR and his best is barely above average. Kelce is the best WR the Chiefs have and he plays TE.
Cue everyone pointing out they have a bunch of second round selections. Well look at their production. Toney was a firsts round wide out and he is trash.
I love the panic from some about the Bengals receiving room.
Mahomes was 14th in the league in passer rating and tied for 4th most interceptions this year. They basically cruised into the playoffs on the backs of a Charmin soft AFCW, only scored 17 against Baltimore and had to rely on playoff Lamar to tank the game for the Ravens, and scored 3 points in the first half of the Super Bowl. That's really not a replicable recipe for success in the AFCN.
I also really doubt that a B tier FA RT and a rookie LG added to the OL are going to give Burrow the kind of time to take the snap, smoke a cigar, check his messages, then see that Irwin has finally gotten open and get him the ball.
This is like forming a race team, getting the next Mario Andretti as your driver, then saying "F it, I'm putting all my money into the pit crew and dropping an Ecoboost in the engine compartment. I've got an elite driver. He should be able to make up for having a lot less horsepower."
