Owners could invest more into the community that supports said teams. It’s a win-win

Literally the most overrated QB in football history, and I’m an LSU Fan.

WTF have you ever seen from Joe Burrow to make you think that he will stop trying because he got a big contract?

Ballsy call by Cleveland to run a quarterback draw from the fifteen yard line with 20 seconds left in the half and no time outs.

Missing all of training camp with an injury will do that to a guy. The Bengals started off awful last season and ended up fine. It’s a long season

I almost forgot Bengals fans, how's that Orlando Brown signing working out for you? Chiefs fans tried to tell you he was overrated and is terrible at pass protection against speed rushers.

We need to keep seeing the “new highest paid…” shite the bed the rest of their career. Of course, I don’t want to see it happen to JB.

The trend of outrageous contracts needs to slow down if not end.

Okay, boomer.
Burrow has earned every single cent of his contract. He should've gotten even more considering what Herbert got.

What a moronic post. He is coming back from injury and missing time with the team. He was in the same position last year and started off slow before turning it on midseason.

You really think Burrow is the kind of guy to mail it in after getting paid? Get real.

I can't stand people like you. You're ridiculous. Grow up, child.

How is he overrated? He took over a horrible team and went to the Super
Bowl in what? Year 2? Made a run the following year. Without much of an Oline.

I don't understand how you can begin to say he is "literally" "the most" overrated QB in football history. He's barely even into his career. Like wtf is this? Kind of sad you take this stance to get other negative pricks to circle jerk with you on here.

Off the top of my head Aikman is probably more overrated. Lesser stats on a much more loaded team.

I don't get the hatred.

Aikman was more overated th as n any qb of a dynasty. And it’s not close.

Exactly. Anyone overreacting to the first game of the season should not be taken seriously. It's absolutely idiotic. Especially when the exact same thing happened a year ago and he proved he could overcome it.

I will never understand the Joe Burrow hate around here. I don't sit around hating other QBs just because they are praised or went to a different school or play for a rival team.

The Chiefs' LT on Thursday night graded out worse than any game that Brown ever played for the Chiefs.
