I want to say yes for sure but I guess right now it’s hard to look past Brees career achievements. And seemed like the prime Brees was scoring a shite ton of points. Maybe NFC South AFC north thing but it’s hard to figure bengals don’t have equal success offensively.

Give Burrow a Dome and Sean Payton and he’s more than up to the task to match him

Plus he’s infinitely less cucked

You can argue that Brees is a top 5 QB of all time def top 10, so no burrow is not a top 5-10 QB of all time. Geez

If you think Burrow is a Trump supporter I've got a bridge to sell you.

Burrow does the same stuff Brees did to defenses. Let him play 5 more years before writing him off.

Who's writing him off? The question was is he as good as Brees? No the answer is absolutely not.

I like Burrow and he has the potential to be great, but he has a long way to go to be in the Brees conversation. Brees is an all time great.

Brees was in a Marty Shottenheimer offense that featured LT. Marty ball. You can't compare that. Burrow is good but Brees was elite during his time with the Saints. Burrow has 15 years left to become elite. The odds are against him to become all time top 10. Especially in Cincinnati.

Most of JB's numbers are better than Brees' in their first 5 seasons.

And that is the rub. Only time will tell who was the better of the two.

Brees had his first of 10 30-plus TD seasons in his 8th season. JB had his first in his second season. Brees' first of 3 40-plus TD seasons was in his 11th season. With 1 more TD JB will have his first 40-plus season in his 5th season.

Only time can determine how JB stacks up against an all-time great.

Burrow has alot of catching up to do. Brees is arguably a top 5 NFL QB.
