“The interesting thing about him, when you look at his face, he reminds me of Peyton Manning,” another scout said. “You look into his eyes and see the determination. He’s a much better athlete than Manning. He can run, too. I estimated 4.7 (seconds in the 40). Peyton was more of a statue. The arm strength is about the same … and being resourceful and making excellent decisions. The composure, the confidence, the mental toughness. He’s special.”

It’s a pretty heady comparison, to be sure. But let’s not forget that others who are well respected in football circles have compared Burrow to none other than the NFL’s GOAT, Tom Brady.

Has his time ever been published? Just eyeballing his runs he looks pretty fast and quick.

Tom Brady isn't the GOAT. He played for the GOAT dynasty and GOAT head coach. Peyton turned two franchises completely around and won a championship with both. With better defenses or coaching like the year they sat Peyton for 4 games during an unbeaten year, he'd have several rings as well.

That’s a joke. If he used arguably, then MAYBE. I could make an argument that only 1 of the SBs should even count between the taping and deflated balls. He isn’t the Goat. Montana, Unitas, Brady, P Manning, Brees, Favre, Bradshaw all can make an argument. The first 3 would be mines though.
