This in no way means that the Bengals are certain to beat the Bills, but what Burrow did last week behind that awful offensive line was amazing. He had zero time to throw as the game moved on last week. All he had time for was 2.5 seconds or less, and even at that he was getting hit right after he threw the ball. On a 3rd and half yard play Zac Taylor admitted he called a roll out pass thinking it would be man coverage but it was zone and the play had zero chance to succeed, but Burrow made the unblocked $100 million Roquan Smith miss in the backfield and he scrambled for a first down (they scored a td later that drive). The Bengals had almost zero run game.

I admit that it helps to have a talent like Jamarr Chase. Both Burrow and Chase were limited to routes of 12 yards or shorter due to double teams and zero protection for Burrow yet they still found ways to get 17 offensive points against one of the best defenses in the NFL.

Reading this thread, without looking at stats, I thought Allen must be better than Burrow. After looking at stats, Burrow is pretty clearly the better passer. You can probably say they are even when you factor in Allen's rushing, but I'm not sure how there can be a consensus that Allen is better. Allen turns the ball over 33% more than Burrow, and only produced 6% more total yards and 5% more total tds.

2) Hurts - think the dual threat aspect of him puts him ahead of Allen and Burrow. Yes injury is worrying but I think he'll be fine.

If you’re going to do that, why would Burrow be ranked over Hurts? Hurts has more yards per attempt and completion. Has a better INT percentage, a better quarterback rating..and has done it while being sacked at a higher rate than Burrow.
