Burrow lost as many games in his final two seasons (25-3) as Dalton did in his final three seasons (34-3)
All true, but Dalton also played in the MWC at the time.
It's not the same as going through Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Oklahoma, and Clemson to win the National Championship.
Also, Dalton's stat line in that Wisconsin Rose Bowl game:
219 yards, 1 TD, 0 INTs. 28 rush yards with 1 rushing TD.
Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota, Iowa, and Northwestern all put up more points against Wisconsin than TCU did.
Dalton has proven to be a good QB both at the college and NFL level, but he didn't have as good of a resume coming into the draft as Burrow has.
It will be tough, but I definitely expect Burrow to be in the running for Top 10 QB year after year in the NFL. I didn't have that expectation for Dalton.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
