    For anyone who didn't watch Cincy-Cleveland last night, Burrow was 37 of 61 for 316 and 3 TDs, 0 ints. 61 attempts. 61. He also took at least 10 hits - he was 3 sacks and 7 knockdowns early in the 4Q. If he finishes the season with that o-line it will be a miracle.

    aikman and buck had good things to say about his pocket presence and grasp of the offense.

    All I could follow was the box score and the browns was stomping their ass. 2nd half, way different story. Joe went full fuck that and worked em good.

    According to NFL research, Joe Burrow is the first rookie QB to throw 60 passes since 1950 without an interception. You are usually getting your ass kicked when you have to throw that many, but Joe did it. Joe breaks an NFL record in a loosing effort.

    Where the hell is izzy and why an I doing his research? Fire the bum already

    He rarely has time to get the ball downfield. But arm strength doesn't seem to be the problem. He's putting 10 yard outs on the money and they're not getting jumped.

    Jefferson broke out with a huge game yesterday. Great numbers for Burrow as well, but he got sacked 8 times by Philly and had to leave the game at one point. That line may get him killed.
