re: Connor Shaw could've been Joe Burrow if not for some bad breaks. Or so they say....

Better runner than Murray. Nowhere near the passer.

Aaron threw for over 3000 yards all four seasons he played. Shaw never threw for 2500.

Aaron's worst season in passing TDs was his freshman year at 24. Other than that, he was over 30 every year, even his last where he missed the final two games due to injury.

24 was Shaw's best. By far his best.

and this sums up why Shaw was successful in college and not the pros .

he is a game manager and a damn good one at that. He won ball games by scoring some, extending drives and not turning it over. The defense did their job and kept teams from going crazy. He was still a great leader and tough player but he wasnt a gun slinger. I still have Garcia over him in a lot of departments. The defenses just werent as good for Stephen.
