we just couldn't see it because of our own biases. But, he isn't a better overall QB than Mendoza.

Exactly. And, Burrow was always more worried about his outfit and his hair than he was about football. If he had concentrated more on football, he could have been great.

These stats aren’t even comparable.

Mendoza will be in a similar situation Burrow is in soon. Play for a shite NFL team with little to no help.

But, overall, Mendoza is a better player and QB. One got the feeling that Burrow wasn't really reliable or dependable or even that interested in football.

Burrow leaned more towards fashion.

I dunno about Burrow, but that image you posted shows me that Elton John, as a QB, is worlds better than anyone who ever played in the SEC. I did not know he was that friggin great.

Bama wishing they had a Burrow is getting kinda old.

Burrow wasn’t into fashion at college.

Why is Mendoza better exactly? Stats aren’t even on same level.

Difference in 2019 LSU team is Indiana had a better defense.

All right ... obvious troll thread. But I'll play.

If you think LSU fans get pissy about Burrow ? Talk to a Louisville fan about "Lamar".

Burrow lived in the football ops building and did nothing but obsess on football while he was here. He won the Heisman in a landslide over 2 other quarterbacks and your stats don't really give any credibility to your argument. The only similar stat is interceptions

The very next year we had a QB with a better season.

Not saying he's a better QB, but Jones' season was better.

You mean the shitty teams he brought to the AFC championship and Super Bowl and beating Mahomes / Allen in his first 2 seasons as a starter?

Mendoza is great but these comparisons are stupid

Damn, and Burrow had way tougher competition and 7 top 10 teams.

Thanks for posting this, had no idea Burrow was THAT much better.

Joe’s final season at LSU was without peer but his NFL career so far has been like a Candle in the Wind.
