Burrows is fun to watch for sure, but on plays where he has something ridiculous like 9 seconds of clean pocket time, it makes me wonder how much different he would look behind an OL like ours where his level of frustration grows every time he drops back, until he has bags under his eyes and a 1000 yard stare like Dalton did by about week 5. If we take him, we'd better figure out how to protect him real fast. UGA imo screwed up by only rushing 3 and not blitzing much. He will see a big difference against teams like Ravens and Steelers who will bring the heat every play. Throwing a rookie in the fire behind any one of our OLmen except Hopkins is a nervous thought. We need a complete OL flip and get rid of Turner while your at it. Then Id feel better about throwing a rookie out there.
The 3 man rush and the clean pockets really only happened one the 1st drive. Kirby Smart bet on his DBs being able to cover and saw that it wasn't going to work and changed things up real quick and then it was Burrow having to manipulate the pocket and buy extra time himself, which he has had to do all year.
