Mahomes>Burrow but the narrative you're pushing is total bullshit.
He's had 2 deep PO runs now and isn't some flash in the pan like Foles was.
He was sacked 7 times vs the Rams, 9 vs the Titans. He has a dog shit OL with great offensive weapons (arguably the best in the league).

I think Burrow is great, but you are not telling the full story here. Burrow’s defense has played a massive role in helping win games or even lose close games instead of getting blown out. Cincy defense has never given up more than 23 points in 7 playoff games the last two seasons. They’ve given up less than 19 points per game in the playoffs. That is extremely helpful to any QB.
Allen’s defense has given up 36 points per game in Buffalo’s last 3 playoff losses. Mahomes’ defense has given up an average of 32 points per game in 3 Playoff losses. Last year Patrick needed 36 just to make it to overtime with Buffalo. He needed 31 just to make it to overtime against the Patriots 4 years ago. Burrow has not dealt with this scenario in his career so far. I am curious to see how long Cincy’s defense can keep playing at such a strong level.
