Like I said, most ofyou did not see him plasy in 2018.  You can talk about shceme mall you want, but if Burrow had the greatest skill set in college history in 2018 then trained scouts would have seen them not matter what scheme he was playing in.

Burrow just was not good enough to win the starting spot at OSU.

Getting away from Ohio State saved his career.   We all know that playing for Urban Meyer is the death of any possibility of an NFL career for any QB not wanting to be a WR.  Urban Meyer is the king of producing QB's who never do squat in the NFL, going back to UF.

Justin Fields looked good last year but unless he transfers, he's doomed.

Leaving OSU was the best thing Burrow ever did.  At least Ed O had brains enough to know what to do with him.  Urban Meyer didn't.  He wasn't smart enough.

Funny how pretty much anyone in the business sees no real holes in the kid's game yet we have armchair experts around here who, without any real evidence hate on him with, fall back on the moronic OSU nonsense.  Reaching much?  

Or, Vince Young, like that is pertinent.  Vince Young, whose failure was his own doing.  Vince Young, who refused to put in the work, a guy with pronounced psychological issues and a goofy throwing motion and is totally different than Joe Burrow in every way.  Did Vince Young complete almost 80% of his passes?  Did he beat seven top ten teams?  But hey, let's go ahead and compare them anyway, no matter how stupid it is to do so, because...well, just because.
