Got a link to where I said anything close to this?
Gee, you could have fooled me and several other people as well cause that is exactly what the accumulation of your posts heretofore have been implying.
Nonetheless, in my opinion, Joe Burrow is already as good or even better as Patrick Mahomes. As he runs a pro offensive system already and he runs it incredibly efficiently.
I'm not the only one who has noticed this, as numerous draft analysts I have read say the same exact thing. As they all expect Joe Burrow to hit the ground running when he hits the NFL.
In fact, one of the reasons why Joe Burrow has been so damn good is cause he is effectively already an NFL level QB playing in the college game. Indeed, his tight window and back shoulder throws were so precisely accurate that I don't care what level of football you play on, they couldn't have been any better.
Not to mention, those receivers he was throwing the ball to if in the NFL would already also be starters as well.
Indeed, those touchdown passes he threw in the Clemson game were against future first and second-round draft picks. Just cause they will transition to the NFL for next season, doesn't mean they are going to miraculously take a jump in talent level. I watched Greedy Williams a few times this season during his rookie season and I didn't see any such jump in talent whatsoever. He looked exactly the same as last season.

Ohh watch out. The guy with a week old account is actually an expert in disguise.
It doesn't matter how old my account is cause it has no bearing on my ability to see who is the faster of the two, who has a better pocket presence, and who also throws better on the run between Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow. Indeed, it obviously is Joe Burrow. Not only that, but I provided a link to prove it.

And just because someone had a better college career doesn't automatically mean their NFL career is also going to be better... That's equally as ridiculous.
No, it's not equally ridiculous. As Joe Burrow in 2019 was essentially an NFL level QB playing college football and he is already the better QB between the two.

But yes, not wanting to say that Burrow will be significantly better than the guy who won an NFL MVP one year and a Super Bowl the next is a dumbass take.
A dumbass take is ignoring the fact that Joe Burrow not only won the Heisman but also swept all of the other major awards in college football at the same time he also won a National Championship. As he broke every single QB record there is to break in college football and he did it by defeating 7 teams ranked in the AP Top Ten Poll, with four of those teams being ranked in the Top Four at the time he beat them.
As again, Joe Burrow was essentially an NFL level QB playing college football and I'm not the only one saying that, but most of the analysts and scouts that have looked and analyzed him are also saying the same exact thing too.
I've been a fan of Patrick Mahomes too, but Joe Burrow is more accurate and he also has a better pocket presence relative to Mahomes. I just hope his talents won't go to waste playing for the Cincinnati Bengals.
So if anyone is a dumbass, go look in the damn mirror cause you are greatly underestimating the talent of Joe Burrow.

What are you even babbling about? I never said Burrow would be "astronomically better" than Mahones. I never called Mahomes the goat. All I said was that I would take Patrick Mahomes over Burrow if I was starting a team right now. That and Burrow won't run significantly faster than Mahomes at the combine.
And your link doesn't prove anything. Your link is Burrow's interview with Rich Eisen
You do realize this isn't a hot take right? Take your argument over to the more sports board and see how many people agree with you. Start a thread that say"Joe Burrow is already a better QB than Patrick Mahomes" and see where that goes.

A QB winning the Heisman doesn't exactly translate to winning in the NFL. The 1970 Heisman winner Jim Plunkett is the last QB to win a Heisman and a Superbowl

Stop it I love burrow but cmon mahomes is a once in a generational talent. We haven’t seen a qb with his package of skills since maybe prime Rodgers his arm is even stronger than Aaron’s and he has much better intangibles
