Show the stats of how they perform when blitzed.

Herbert sucks when blitzed. Burrow eats blitzes for breakfast and shits touchdowns.

In Herberts defense the difference between the receiving group he was throwing to compared to Bama or LSU is massive.

Tua and Burrow were spectacular, but against most secondaries the receivers were running open in space.

Compare the WR corps for the three. Oregon had their top 3 guys out to start the year. But even with them healthy it was no comparison.

Burrows passes are where there is very little separation by the WR. His game translates very well to the next level. The other two are good, but their stats are due to WRs who get separation or inferior DB competition.

On target percentage has nothing to do with the WRs......


Thats the point. It just measures the QBs ability

The biggest difference between college and nfl qb's is, college qb's throw to open wr's. Nfl qb's throw wr's open. That's what Burrow did all season. There's a reason he's as good as he is.

this.

Burrow threaded the needle all season. Tons of his throws are into tight coverage and the receiver is technically covered but he was just that good in finding the only spot to put it.

What a player.

Herbert will be the Josh Rosen of this draft class in regards to NFL transition.

Joe's ability to control time and slow it to frame-by-frame is really what impressed me, and what fostered that "makes it look so easy" effect. It wasn't perfect, but if he can do this at NFL speed even half as well...

Still, he will first need all the other pieces in place. The task before him now is to not use up all his extra lives before they are assembled.

He's tough, but that "welcome wagon" is licking it's chops, and you know this.

Herbert is a MUCH better locker room guy/leader and has a renowned work ethic. Rosen has talent, but no work ethic.

Really not that comparable IMO.
