POLL Would You Rather? Baker vs Burrow

[Anointed One]

Baker as of now... I feel Burrow's will be a bust... Didn't feel Baker would do much in the NFL either when he was drafted...

had a feeling SportsHoopla would go burrow. SportsHoopla is notorious for buying the media hype. Evident by following the draft threads

Baker has consistent college production, at elite levels, breaks rookie records, has a bad year on a bad team and the one hit wonder burrow, who couldn't beat out Dwayne Haskins. Is the guy. But that system and coach at LSU couldn't have played a part.

Exactly. I'm not gonna go out on a limb and call Baker some elite QB but I also want to see how he does with a real NFL HC. That team turned into a train wreck last year. Sure, Mayfield played a big part but to dismiss how awful fat Freddie was is wrong.
As for Burrow, looked fantastic last year but we will see. If he goes into a bad situation, it really won't matter how talented he is. Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Big Ben, Wilson, Mahomes all have been in good situations to succeed.

thats the point though, if you had to pick, right now.

why?


burrow also couldnt beat out haskins.......and baker broke rookie NFL records....food for thought


solid analysis, lets hear
why burrow is better.

Why not?

It's no knock on Baker, guy has always been a baller

I just don't see a real weakness in Burrow's game.
- Overall accuracy
- He consistently makes the right plays
- Not afraid to take deep shots and believes in his WRs
- Knows when to check down and great against the blitz
- Makes good reads
- Good poise, good pocket presence, patient with the football
- Great mobility to either extend plays or get a first down
- Takes care of himself on and off the field and is a player I would want representing my team

What's there's not to like

just thoughts

well....if I don't like a big headed loud mouth QB then I think my arrow points to Burrow

personalities aside, i'll take baker.

I’m more into Grapes myself

personalities and leadership are a large part of this more often than not. I said I need more data between the two but you said that was the point....so I made my selection, and now you've made yours

bakers guys have ALWAYS loved him , you may not. But hes a leader on that field. So your analysis there could be a bit flawed based on your PERSONAL view of bakers personality........just saying

A pear of melons please
