It would be disingenuous to not admit that Burrow had NFL talent all around him while Mahomes had none.

Even more disingenuous not to admit that Mahomes threw against shite Big-12 defenses (Burrow hung 7 pass TD's on the Okies D). And, Mahomes was 13-19 as a starting QB at Texas Tech.

Good NFL QB? Sure. Generational arm talent? Nah.

He isn’t throwing against shitty Big 12 defenses now.

I think The word Generational gets thrown around a lot, but Mahomes has a huge fricking arm, is very accurate and has good touché when he needs it. Playing against Big 12 defenses in college doesn’t really factor into that.

It’s a really ducking big arm, and it helps him make throws a lot of QBs can’t. Nope you can have that kind of arm talent and be a shitty QB. Jamarcus Russell could make every throw, throw with touch and all that. It was the brain his arm was attached to that was the issue.

So I’ll take Joe’s Arm and Brain over most QBs. But It’s dumb and unnecessary to try and knock down Mahomes who in 2 years as a starter won an MVP award and then a Super Bowl.

I'm not saying that Mahomes didn't throw against shitty defenses. I'm saying he threw against shitty defenses while playing with a bunch of shitty players.

I mean the second best player on offense his junior year was Jonathan Giles
