Thoughts on Joe Burrow

My point, and it wasn't a big one, was just that the difference won't be the support cast he'd have at the Bengals (which would be just as athletically gifted) but rather the level of competition they'll be up against - opponents as good if not better than them rather than constant mismatches.

1. He's a film junkie and a tireless competitor. I get that most NFL guys are the same, but his coaches credit a lot of his high completion % to his pre-snap reads which is a direct result of his film study.

2. He has performed his best against the best defenses that he has faced and in the biggest games of the year.

3. I'm not overly concerned about the 1-year wonder stuff. He's been in college for 5 years and he started to play much better toward the end of last year. He also benefited from a new pro-style system that should translate his current year success to the NFL.

4. He can beat you with his arm and his legs. He's not going to run the option, but anyone that has watched him play this year knows that he navigates the pocket extremely well and will exhaust his options before running. He also makes great use of his RB, which could turn Mixon into a real force in the passing game.

And why he might fail?
