Please add thoughts about the best player in the draft.  Jesus...it is like this guy was perfect in the best league in college football.  He went to the natty and won it from behind.  Damn,  if he is Peyton Manning or better he is worth all picks for us?  His film is ridiculous.

But is it the player or the system?? He wasn't that player the year before..

I mean, you can honestly make a very compelling argument that he had the best single year in college football ever.

Everyone wants to put it all on the system, but then...

That's what impresses me about Burrow. He keeps his head about him and while he may not have Brett Favre's arm, the guy seems to be able to deliver the ball the same no matter what whether he's set in the pocket and able to step up or running for his life throwing back across his body like you're not supposed to ever do. I mean, that's a 40 yard throw across his body while on the run. I don't want to hear that this guy doesn't have an arm.

OL actually did a good job.  There was really one guy pressuring him but looks like two then he threw in almost triple coverage.  Safety was completely lost and another CB never turned his head around.

Did it work or not? The difference between an elite franchise QB and a JAG is the ability to make the plays you're not supposed to be able to make. You don't coach guys to make the types of plays that Cam made in his prime, that Aaron Rodgers makes, that Patrick Mahomes makes. You either can or you can't.

If this QB is Peyton Manning he is worth our draft.  Just don't want him to die in Cincy.

He had a very solid team around him which helped him and his success.  Will be different story in Cincy.  That OL blows.

I'm not convinced he goes to Cincy. I think they might Eli their way outta there. That organization has zero desire to field a winning team and they'd just drafting them to ride his hype for a little while.

I added my previous comment.  I have seen other college QBs make amazing plays in college just took come to NFL and fall flat.  I’m not saying he will be bad QB in NFL, I just don’t think he will be Manning like.

Peyton manning was Peyton manning  all thur college not just 1 season...

How can we blame the player for being a one year guy when he was only in that system one year? The previous offense that LSU was running would've had John "a punt is not a bad play" Fox begging for a little more offensive aggression.

If the over/under is Peyton Manning, yeah I'll take the under.

    • Arm is weak? Another useless complaint who gives a flying f… if he makes all the throws accurately idgaf about arm strength. Let’s dive deeper into your complaint no zip on the ball show me a play where his lack of zip cost us anything. Show me a play where his weak arm cost us a completion or because he doesn’t have a Josh Allen cannon he didn’t make the play he needed to make. His 40 yarder down the field to XL two weeks ago was a got d…. dime his throw to AT in the end zone was a dime, his throw to XL 3 weeks ago that the man pulled out his hand was a dime about 30+ yards. What about the one handed grab to AT was a rocket arm needed? You’re logic is so self absorbed your judging the man off what you want him to have and that’s just outright goofy, not judging him off performance not off the talent he’s going against not even the situation he’s facing ex..(4th quarter down by 4 needed a TD) in which he’s outperformed all expectations vs KC vs Giants vs Tampa nobody Gives a f…. about him not having a rocket he’s noodle arm in the last 4-5 weeks has him rated as top 3 QB I think that’s way more Important then satisfying fans need for our QB to possess a cannon these complaints are getting too notch outlandish and quite embarrassing go be a dam Bills fan so your QB can have the strongest arm in the league yet he’s won nothing significant since he’s been in the dam league besides your heart he’s won your heart by having a rocket arm we gotta see what’s his consolation prize for winning arm of the year award. This is just dumb they benched him to help him because he has all the tools but wasn’t playing up to par benched him he  focused on his technique and came back and started doing what was expected what crow would they even be eating this is ignorant.
    • https://x.com/avl_mike/status/1863950938467189041 Incredible job by Brandt Tilis. Maybe Tepper has finally hired the right group and will stay out of the way. For reference, Dead Money for the past few seasons: 2021: $53.9M 2022: $52.4M 2023: $62.1M 2024: $69.3M 2025: $1.9M All that waste and ineptitude for 17 wins over the past 63 games... Fitterer deserves to be extradited back to CLT to stand trial for war crimes against this franchise. The one caveat is we'll never know how much meddling Tepper actually did, but the results speak for themselves... one of the worst GM tenures in NFL history. Look at this nonsense from this season alone in dead money: Von Bell: $9.9M Hayden Hurst: $9.8M Donte Jackson: $9.7M Diontae Johnson: $9.4M Bradley Bozeman: $7.2M Justin Houston: $3.8M DJ Chark: $3.1M Just such organizational dysfunction, from top to bottom. These weren't even good players. That 2025 dead money number will go up some with the probable release of Miles Sanders, Ian Thomas, etc., but nothing even remotely close to the sheer recklessness and stupidity of the Fitterer Era. Hopefully, we will look back in a few years and see this as the moment where we started to reemerge from the abyss... One can hope... Keep Pounding!!
