24 TDs would be just short of the NFL rookie record set by Mayfield at 27. Peyton Manning had the record prior, of which he had 26 TDs.
4000+ yards would surpass both Mayfield and Manning for yards as a rookie. 4000+ would put Burrow with Cam Newton and Andrew Luck (current record holder for yards as a rookie at 4374).
Single-digit INTs would be incredible. Mayfield had 14 his rookie year, Peyton had 28(!)

Wow.... that's even rarer air than I initially thought. I'm old enough to remember Peyton's rookie year, he sure served up a bunch of picks, but that team was maybe worse than ours.
