That’s a great point. It is COMPLETELY unrealistic for this to be the fans’ expectation of Joe Burrow or anyone else coming out of college. Throwing seven touchdown passes against Oklahoma is one thing, doing it against Clemson is a whole ‘nother can of worms, and doing it against the Ravens or 49ers is another dimension beyond. Clemson has an outstanding defense so I’m looking to see how Joe performs. I know he’ll do well against Clemson but I don’t see him throwing for seven touchdowns against them.
So, yes, development! How will Joe grow into the job? He’ll need coaching — good coaching — and I’m afraid there’s not much of that in Cincinnati these days.
