Ok, let's start this way. I am not a fan of the shrimp boat captain, I think Alleva should be gone yesterday, I think Ponamsky has a tremendous influence on this program, I am already disappointed in the b-ball team BUT, anyone who wasn't won over by Joe Burrow this year must not have any chest.
From his involvement in the fight with UM and him holding up the L, to the guts he showed in the A&M game when he carried the team on his back once E reduced the offense to the 1953 single wing, Joe was the star of this team. He didn't throw for 500 yards (and there are a lot of reasons for this) and he wasn't up for the Heisman, and his name does not end in -eaux, but he is all you can ask for in a QB.
I sure hope LSU fans appreciate him, even if we don't appreciate the rest of this clown show.

Hopefully he continues to progress and has a special season in 2019.

You've got morons on here who think he's a bad qb.

And I do mean morons.

You could've just said that Joe did a great job and left your fantasy world out of the equation.

Without Burrow this team would have won 6 or 7 games at best.

Is he a superstar? Of course not.

Was he a huge upgrade from what we had? Absolutely.

While his “tangibles” aren’t elite, they are good enough.

His “intangibles”, on the other hand, are as good or better than anyone we’ve ever had at QB.

The only thing I think he could stand to drastically improve on is feeling pressure/ avoiding pressure in the pocket.

I love Burrow but the thing that frustrates me is that I think he absolutely COULD be a superstar, but as you said, he definitely was not. If we are to believe the numerous Ohio St posters who visited this site before the season, many of them said the Haskins-Burrow competition was equal, with some even arguing that Burrow should have been the starter. Now fast forward and look at the numbers those two guys put up this year. Haskins threw 47 TD’s! And over 4500 yards. Are we really to believe that Ohio State’s offensive players are THAT much better than what we have? I for one do not. The discrepancy is all about scheme and coaching. Period. Hopefully, Ensminger can figure out how to produce a more high powered offense next year. The only losses on offense are Brumfield, Brosette, and Moreau. There are no more excuses.

Burrow is as good of a QB as Orgeron is a head coach. Take that as you wish.

Its meant as a knock and youre wrong. Joe Burrow was basically our offense this year and ran an antiquated playaction offense when no one respected our run game.
