You're acting like throwing fire is a huge advantage. It was 30 years ago. Passing offenses are more about finesse now. Look at Brees and Brady and Burrow.

Burrow is just coming off the greatest season for a college QB in the history of the game. And you insist that people proclaim Mahomes as a better QB? Because he throws too hard? Has no touch? lucked in to a ready-made Andy Reid offense?

Sorry. Count me out on that nonsense.

1. Burrow throws a lot of passes down field I would Lump him in with two guys in the end of their career.

2. Big and accurate arms are still more usually than small accurate arms. Teams just get by with smart QBs that make up for their diminishing arm strength with intelligence and accuracy (FWIW Mahomes has a better Comp. % than Brady the last two season while throwing more passes downfield.)

Neither of these is true.

You just equate them to arm strength as an excuse.

And Mahomes just became the youngest player ever to win an MVP and a Superbowl MVP.

The same could be said about Burrow in Brady's offense. In fact, a bunch of idiots have been saying this over on the SEC Rant.

I never insisted anything This whole thing started when I said I would take Mahomes over Burrow if I was starting a team. Which was my opinion.

You get mad at people for saying you can't have you own opinion(you on page 5)

You state YOUR opinion, and I'll state my opinion. But don't be so presumptuous as to tell ME what MY opinion is
yet lose your mind when people have an opinion that differs from yours. Time and time again people on the board see you act this way. You are the only person in this thread to mentioned Goat and Mahomes in the same sentence. Nobody was calling him that. Some people disagreed with the idea that Burrow was already significantly better than Burrow, but that's it. Nobody said Burrow was bad. Nobody said Burrow would be a bust. In fact, the two posters you keep disagreeing with have called Burrow the Goat multiple times in this thread.

But I'm done going round and round with you. If you actually do leave after Burrow is drafted, this board will be a better place.
