Kind of hard when you’re winning the championship by a few scores. I guess he could have tried to make it closer. Not sure what you want him to do.

I know, all he had was 4 first round draft picks to get the ball to

Yeah, but Burrow was playing against Clempson. Scrubs.

Have you seen the way that Burrow dresses? Nothing gritty about that flake. A talented flake, but still a flake

Did you forget that Joe Burrow played with broken ribs the whole second half?

Mendoza played with a hurt lip

Pissed him off. You're correct. That was the beginning.
