POLL Call your shot. Burrow or Herbert next 5 years.

[Rex Racer]

OP is a disingenuous dooshbag that started this thread to celebrate a division QB suffering a season ending injury. That's pretty weak even by Pissburgh standards.

 

[fastforward]

No potato related option?

Herbert simply because of his situation. Cincy is a prison.

well they do wear stripes.....

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Even had Burrow not been hurt, I think these threads and polls are more or less pointless. No offense and I guess it's one of those things we can bump in 5 years to see how smart we are but honestly, now is not the time.

Yup.

And now Burrows has been damaged to boot.

 

[Clayton]

Its really difficult to pick Burrow at this point, tbh. He is injured and older and on a worse organization. Herbert's issues coming out of college were mechanical and it looks like they were fixed almost immediately. Herbert has a bigger arm.

5000% agree. But it’s amusing to discuss.

The thing I like about BOTH of them is there pocket presence, ability to manipulate the pocket, and fearless play. Things that a lot of vets can’t do.

Take the injury out of the equation. That was 500% my fault. I was honestly just breezing over some fantasy stats...and was more or less quite impressed with both of them. I posed the question. I forgot burrow went down earlier. Horrid timing on my part.

Herbert and it’s not close. Burrow could be out of the league in 5 years.

 

[redseat]

Herbert due to probably having better weapons.

Now Burrow being out with MCL can't really compare now. But all things "equal" ill go Herbert

 

[SteelersPride]

bump

 

[Battlelyon]

It's the Chargers run by a dipshit thousandaire owner.

This take aged as well as your Jimmy take

Not seeing this thread until just now changed what my vote may have been when it first posted. BY THE POWER OF HINDSIGHT!!!!!!!!!! Both are doing great though, almost any team would love to have either.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Herbert could very well be in position to win it all at some point but I think we can all agree now that Burrow has the "it" factor. The culture change in such a short time in Cinci is remarkable.
Having said that and can't believe I'm about to say this but kudos to Mike Brown for sticking with Zac Taylor through some very lean times and for the Bengals F.O. for bringing in the right mix of guys to make the team more complete.

 

[elguapo]

I said to all my friends when he came out, i thought burrow had "it". Dude does not get rattled and just throws dimes. Now, they better draft him an o-line or he will be dead soon.

 

[Rowdy]

This story isn’t fully written yet, but I’d take either one on my team.

Yep. It's gonna be fun watching these youngsters play for a long time. Some great, young talent in the AFC specifically for the next decade or more.

 

[Southieinnc]

who u got?

Are you indirectly asking me if Cincy and San Diego are relevant for 5 years?

 

[PDay8810]

bump

so, you're saying it's not too late to vote?

edit: Is Burrow now better than Allen?

 

[Iggloo]

It takes a lot of swag to bust out of the Cincy prison. Very impressive.
