That’s an honest assessment. No one is arguing Joe Burrow isn’t the right pick at the right time. He is. My big issues are the scheme in which he’ll play and the players surrounding him. Note this well: I want Joe Burrow to be everything Carson Palmer and Andy Dalton were not. I want him to be clutch in prime time and money in the playoffs.

No great quarterback wins all by themselves when surrounded by mediocrity. Were that the case Archie Manning and the Saints would have won multiple Super Bowls in the 1970s. The same goes for a great runner surrounded by a lack of talent. Look at OJ Simpson for proof of this.
