I admit I realize I have been overestimating him like many others. He is quite good but elite he is not and he definitely hasn't earned his "cool" moniker. And I have heard multiple pundits now say, even after yesterday he is a better QB than Mahomes, but Mahomes is the better player. Talk about moving the goalposts to fit your narrative.
I will give him credit for the Brady comparison though as he has absolutely been carried by his defense and luck like Brady was in his earlier years in winning playoff games. But Burrow isn't as clutch as Brady was even back then.
And for those who think he is even close to Mahomes:
Burrow 0 times 30 point postseason games to Mahomes 8
300 yard games is 1 to 7
TD drives in fourth quarter is a whopping 0 to 14
Good old Nick Wright has more in the video but here is a picture with the most relevant part of Burrow's fourth quarter stats in the postseason. It's remarkable the Bengals have won any games honestly in the postseason.

Having a stupid coach and OC(who btw got fired) doesn't help a young promising QB.:-) [Reply]

Yes it is a team game BUT I didn't realize so many on this board get so "butthurt" so easily when I point out the present score amongst the QB's. SHEESH !! And like I said, Pat will get this record turned around fairly quickly now that the Bengals are out of our heads. Just sayin !!:-) [Reply]

He just isn't a smart QB. I forget which rookie it was that picked him off at arrowhead but a remember reading an article where he talked about picking him off on almost the same exact play in college. [Reply]

Like Burrow is the first smart QB to make a mistake. What a moron he is [Reply]
I find it funny how people hand wave away Burrow’s terrible playoff performances. For some reason everyone is afraid to say he hasn’t been clutch in the playoffs and preface every statement with “I love him he’s great” instead of just acknowledging he has been very not clutch.

I think the issue is that if you watch Mahomes consistently, you realize that no other quarterback is close to him. Therefore, the others all look bad in comparison. [Reply]
I mean, it is hard to argue that Burrow and Cousins playoff stats are nearly the same. The difference is that Burrow has had his defense give him a ton of help. It really is a team sport. Nobody is saying that Burrow isn't a good QB. But one has to question what he has done in the playoffs. I didn't realize until recently that he has no 4th quarter TDs in the playoff. For a guy everybody says is one of the top 2 or 3 NFL QBs, you'd think he'd have a few of those. [Reply]

I'm saying Burrow isn't a good quarterback he's actually a giant pile of shit [Reply]

He straight up shrinks in the playoffs. All of his numbers go way down from his regular season numbers. [Reply]
