There is not a young quarterback in the NFL that I would take outside of Patrick Mahomes over Joe Burrow.
He's that good.
Whoa, whoa!
There's not a young quarterback in the NFL.
I would take outside of Patrick Mahomes over Joe Burrow already mean it.
He doubled down.
He's taken Joe Burrow other than Patrick Mahomes.
Meena, go ahead.
What do you think?
First of all, this is the difference between me and Orlowski.
I texted that Boyd catch to our group test and said, Wow, look at Tyler Boyd, of course, dance like Look at Joe Burrow.
But putting a pin in that look.
Listen, man.
I love Joe Burrow.
He's my favorite in the class.
He's been awesome.
Okay, he's so smart, so good on the short, intermediate stuff.
Pocket presence is through the roof.
But the notion that you would take him over the human magician D John Watson, who is just two years older than Borough, is banana.
Okay, like a war, you know, like you're trying to get my blood pressure up.
Jihad Watson, based on what they've done so far, has outperformed borough in just about every respect statistically.
But here's one that stands out and I think really matters.
On 15 yards plus throws this season, Joe Burrow has a 39% completion percentage.
DeShaun Watson has a 63% completion percentage because his arm is significantly better than Joe Burrows.
I love Joe Burrow.
Please don't hear this as a dig a burrow.
John Watson is just that good.
Marcus, I know you agree with me.
Come on, come on.
My sport coat, brother.
100%.
I agree with You mean up.
But see, this is what Dan does front.
He actually got my blood pressure up.
Today.
I've gotten used to hearing some of the stuff that comes out of his brain and not really reacting, because I know sometimes he just poking the bear.
Yes, I'm a literal bear.
That and he's poking me.
Joe Burrow has played eight games.
Hey, I don't care.
Watson is giving you this entire sample.
Thank off greatness.
Not not just good.
He's giving you all of the moment.
Just pointed out with Joe Burrow, Ugo with Shawn Watson and now you.
Now Joe Burrow is the second best young quarterback in the NFL because you've seen him play eight times.
Come on, man.
Come on, man.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Here's my thing.
And this is why I'm confident saying that.
Listen, I love the Shawn Watson to like.
This is not a bash onto Shawn Watson thing, but the way job like No, no, no, The rhythm and the field that he has his uncoachable like it is.
I understand that you guys are saying he's more.
Shawn Watson is a more powerful player, like he's the better kind of jaw dropping place type player.
But Joe Burrow can do things that the Sean can like the way that he can operate.
Sean doesn't have that in his game right now.
Now.
There might be some stuff that Sean could do athletically, too, but he can operate like in a more rhythmic play or more with the place that creates those big place.
And I'll say this one last thing.
Mina.
He makes every play work like Joe Burrow will make every play work.
There's place where the play call happens and the defense wins and Joe Burrow makes it.
We say that about Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers.
He makes it work.
That's the difference.
Mean ago you were raising your hands.
Oh, you know what's uncomfortable?
A deep ball, Dan.
A default, like the one to Shawn Watson has.
And the craziest part is I didn't even talk about DeShaun Watson's legs.
Okay?
I didn't even bring that it.
Sure, but if we wanna throw that into it as well, don't sleep on job Rose later, right?
You've turned Marcus into the Headless Horseman.
What's going on?
He's Beavis and Butthead right now on us, man.
I can't I can't with this guy.
I cannot with this guy, man.
Well, I cannot on this tangent because Joe Burrow is balling.
Look, nobody on this show loves Joe Burrow more than I love Joe Burrow.
But you're not about to sit on this show and say he's the second best young quarterback in the NFL.
After we don't watch the sun watching literally Harry the Houston Texans, in spite of Bill o E, I would take him, I would take him, and I'm gonna use your line.
If you don't like it, make your own damn list.
But I would take him over.
Anybody but Patrick Mahomes.
All right, Marcus.
Picking jacket back on top of your head because that was the funniest thing I've seen today.
