Anyone who claims this is retarded. Tua might not have been the better QB last night, but to say Burrow has more heart than him is asinine.


Agreed. Burrow was better last night but man both of those guys showed a lot of heart.

Didn’t dislike Tua before to last night but he made me a fan with the way he played.

Burrow is the better qb. You can't fake the type of numbers he is putting up. He isn't the most physically gifted but he's got enough physical gifts to go along with his vision and feel for the game to more than make up for not having a Jamarcus Russell type arm. As a dolphin's fan I'd be more than happy to have him behind center in the future. He's fun to watch when he isn't playing against your team.

Burrow. Tua hasn't looked great when facing the top pass defenses. His career is built on weak schedules.

Burrow is much better. Tua will be like Mariotta - a bust. Burrow is the next Tom Brady.

And nothing suggests that he would ever stay on 2 in the NFL.

Burrow handled the pressure better than Tua. Burrow is a senior though. If Tua stays his senior season, he will be more mature and may be able to handle the pressure better. Today it is Joe but to really compare apples to apples, both would need to be judged with how well they both played with being Seniors. Today Joe has more poise but Tua is extremely talented and once he matures another season he too may develop the little bit more poise needed to clean up the mistakes.

You don’t think Burrow could’ve got 400? We were killing the clock and kneeling the ball the last few drives. The w is the only stat you need to look at

You want "heart"? Joe Burrow last year before the Bama game separated his shoulder and played the whole game against Bama. LSU was on the verge of starting a 3rd string walk-on quarterback against Bama last year. Burrow had the separated shoulder and Myles Brennan had the back injury so he was a no go. It was down to Burrow or the walk-on QB.

Burrow for a team like the Saints or Patriots
Tua for a team like San Fran or Kansas City.

I love Burrow with all my being; but he needs to get rid of the ball and take less sacks!

Tua has proven himself since his true freshman year, and even ousted Jalen Hurts, the previous SEC offensive player of the year. Burrow was beaten out at Ohio State and had to transfer out to get playing time, and has only had this one good year.


Tua has feasted on average and shitty defenses. As good as he was last year, he was 48/80 for 623 yards 4 TD and 5 INT against the 3 best defenses he faced (Mississippi State, UGA and Clemson) and had to be bailed out in the SEC Championship game by Hurts. A lot of Ohio State fans don’t think Burrow was beaten out. Urban Meyer was heavily involved in Haskins recruitment while Burrow was primarily recruited by Tom Herman who was no longer around.

Tua got replaced in the SEC championship game because he was blowing it. Burrow and it's not close

Tua is not nearly as tough

Everything else considered, I'm going with JB all day.
