Burrow is great. He's confident, he's got some swagger. Nothing wrong with that.
No, he's not Mahomes, and isn't likely to catch Mahomes, but he will absolutely be a pain in the ass for the next decade plus as long as Cinci fields a team around him. Taylor's a damned good coach, though, so you'd think they'll stay a contender.
There are some punks on that team, no question, but I just don't see anything to hate about Burrow other than the fact that he was the benefactor of Mahomes' worst half of football since pee-wee league.
I don't even begrudge their 'underdog, nobody respects us' stuff; I mean, everyone picked the Bills, people called them frauds, and wrote them off after the slow start. I get it.
Let's just win this game, and all of that goes away.
