Aikman is probably the best comparison I've seen.
No it's not. Aikman was a statue in the pocket. Burrow has way better feet & mobility than Aikman ever dreamed of. I doubt even a young Aikman has the ability to slide in the pocket & make this throw.

His build and mechanics remind me a lot of Kerry Collins, but he's obviously more mobile than Collins was
Kerry Collins had a much stronger arm but he also had a much slower, elongated throwing motion that lead to a lot of interceptions.

for some reason, I keep going back to Matthew Stafford

He remind me of Romo. But a winner. Romo is a great guy. Just not a winner when it mattered.
In terms of physical abilities & mechanics, this a great comparison. Burrow has more leadership qualities about him than Romo which falls under the intangibles category.

Uh......no. Stafford has a much stronger arm than Burrow & it's not even close. Stafford also seriously lacks in the leadership category & he isn't a winner like Burrow.

Well I’ve seen Brady, Brees, and Rodgers so far ITT
So I’ll say Mahomes

I don't know that there's a perfect 1:1 comparison, but he reminds me of the younger, in-his-prime Philip Rivers. Fiery, accurate, decent arm but not a cannon. Elite pre-snap reads, knows exactly where to go with the ball, and demands perfection out of his teammates. Again, not a perfect comparison, but just kind of reminds me of him.

That's a decent comparison but Burrow is still more mobile than Rivers. Besides that, it's a fair comparison.

Kirk Cousins, Ben Rothlisberger.
I like Ben because of his confidence- slightly cocky - demeanor. Also his escape ability. Not a true runner but can extend plays. Similar game as Burrow.

If Brady weren’t the GOAT then more people would be making that comparison. They have a similar build and mechanics and tendencies.

Uh......no. Stafford has a much stronger arm than Burrow
"Throws hard" does NOT equate to "stronger arm".
Throwing with touch makes for a much more catchable ball. Stafford was a career 62.2% passer in the NFL, and 57.1% career in college.

I love Burrow, but there are better comparisons for him mentioned in this thread.

Watching the Packers tonight I see a good bit of resemblance to Aaron Rodgers.

Are you saying Burrow is better than Stanford??????
Posted on 9/27/19 at 12:15 pm to ctb504
Alex Smith. Accurate, can move better than expected, not the strongest arm.
