I'm not saying we can't win this game-but I think Burrow has earned respect. Herbert has done nothing, no signature wins, and a .500 record. That's not even close to a decent comp.
Allen? Hasn't beat Burrow. Neither has Mahomes, in three tries.
Give the respect where it's due and let's go beat his ass!

Burrow is great. But…Let’s be clear, it’s a team game. I think Cincy has a better defense and we saw it on Sunday with them holding a very good Buffalo offense to only 10 points. Burrow's defense has repeatedly done remarkable stuff to help him the last couple years.
Burrow's QBR in the playoffs last year was 51/100 which is nothing special. He did nothing special against the Ravens two weeks ago and the defense gave him a win on that 99 yard fumble return TD. Burrow was legitimately great on Sunday against Buffalo. I expect him to have another strong game against a KC defense that isn’t able to cover or tackle like they need to, and they can’t get enough pass rush on Burrow.
