Is it Time to ask how good is Joe Burrow

[SheriffJoe]

Joe Burrow’s W–L resume (while throwing to the two best WRs in the NFL):

2020: 2–7–1 (rookie year)
2021: 10–6
2022: 12–4
2023: 5–5
2024: 9–8
2025: 3–1 (actually, more like 2.5-1 LOL)

Josh Allen's W–L resume (throwing to a bargain-bin receiving corps):

2018: 5–7 (rookie year)
2019: 10–6
2020: 13–3
2021: 11–6
2022: 13–3
2023: 11–6
2024: 13–4
2025: 9–4

Does Avo even know what "elite" or "franchise QB" actually mean?

Josh is dragging a cast of practice-squad receivers to double-digit wins every year…

Meanwhile Burrow is putting up mid-tier records with Ja'Marr friggin' Chase and Tee friggin' Higgins.

"Burrow is a phenom, deal with it bro."
…misses the playoffs 4 out of 6 years.

And no - one random head-to-head game this past Sunday doesn't suddenly rewrite the entire body of work. In fact, flip the receiving corps and it's a double-digit Bills blowout, and everyone knows it.

Also you can debate the WR salary all you want

The Bengals defense doesn’t suck because of not spending money / spending

Their defense sucks because they can’t draft and develop talent to save their lives

Zero Pro Bowlers drafted since 2010

Chase/Higgins contracts will look like bargains in a couple years

You're missing the actual point:

When you sink 45% of your cap into your "franchise QB" + two superstar WRs, the whole justification is that the offense should overcome whatever roster flaws exist. Otherwise the cap math is pointless.

And even before the big contracts - when Ja'Marr and Tee were on rookie deals and were already the best WR duo in the NFL - that was the window Burrow had to cash in on.

He didn't. In fact, the Bengals didn't even make the playoffs half the time!

And now whatever make-believe "window" you thought existed is permanently closed.

Maybe the Bengals should just cut their losses, dump Burrow, and sign Joe Flacco or Philip Rivers next season.

 

[SheriffJoe]

Dalton Kincaid FirstAid is arguably the Bills' best receiver - and he's a tight end.

Mike Gesicki is better.

Whatever "draft deficiencies" Avo nitpicks about the Bengals (endless excuses for Burrow) it's definitely not on offense. If anything, it makes the whole "Burrow vs. Anyone" debate look even more embarrassing.

Allen had to put on his cape to rally, but the final score flattered Burrow.
Flip the receiving corps and Allen drops 45-50+ on Burrow without breaking a sweat - and everyone knows it.

Philip Rivers is not a fan of JoeyB..

Take heart, Burrow brown-nosers - the Shedeur Sanders hype train is already outshining you in sheer delusion.

Next season I'm starting a thread called, "The Year of Kyler Murray" - same old Avo rollercoaster:

Super Bowl hype midseason excuses heartbreak rinse, repeat.

Almost any decent QB would win with JoeyB's elite receiving corps.

What's the opposite of BDS?

No heartbreak lol it’s a game

Glad Burrow is the quarterback of the Bengals. Will always give them a chance

Hell they still might sneak in this year

Hopefully Burrow can beat the Ravens!

RUH ROH..

Trouble in Burrow-dise!

Is JoeyB hinting at retirement or want out of Cinci?

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1998859412841349426

I dunno Joey...

No HOF QB (Brady, Favre, Peyton, Warner, Marino, Aikman, Allen etc.) had the weapons you have. You will NEVER put up better offensive numbers than you do now with literally the best receiving corps in NFL history.

Much like Allen, Tom Brady's receivers were dogshit compared to the Ferraris and Lambos you have.

What's that? Your D sucks? Tough titty - man up and start ballin' and stop whining! If you gotta put up 40, well...no problemo for the GOAT, right? Be a leader and for GAWDSAKES...for once in your soft overrated career at least make the playoffs so I don't keep making Avo look like a tard year after year.

Winners never quit and quitters never win!

"Warrior"

How do you quantify that, exactly? Number of snaps survived before something pops? Number of excuses generated per press conference?

Anyway, let's be fair and use last season - because Glass Joey never actually finishes one - and objectively grade the Bengals 9-8 masterpiece.

Ready?

Here are the 8 losses, with the games your Porcelain Prince couldn't even get to your "quality start" benchmark of 32 points marked with a



New England Patriots - L 10-16
Imagine scoring ten on the 2024 Patriots. Ten. On purpose.

Kansas City Chiefs - L 25–26
But but but… he's so clutch!!

Washington Commanders - L 33–38
Outgunned by a rookie. To be fair, one of the rare weeks his ribs, wrist, that "Joe Cool" aura were all functioning at once.

Baltimore Ravens - L 38–41 (OT)
Not a but still an L - outdueled by exploited's favorite QB, "Leemah"

Philadelphia Eagles - L 17-37
Total stinker at home. A "warrior" performance if the battle he’s fighting is against basic offensive production.

Baltimore Ravens - L 34–35
Another L, courtesy "Leemah" - Avo, can't go 0-2 against your top divisional rival...just can't.

Los Angeles Chargers - L 27-34
Wait... Hebert??? But, but, but, Joey is top 2!!!

Pittsburgh Steelers - L 38-44
On the rare occasion he shows up, the L finds him anyway. "D" grade for the D & Mike Tomlin gets it done.

The Official 2024-25 "Glass Joey Quality Start Tracker"

Losses with < 32 points: 4
Losses where the offense wasn't the problem but he still couldn’t deliver: 4
“Warrior” points earned???

There's your shitty 9-8 season.

Because according to Avo and JoeyB's superfans, if you squint really hard, ignore the losses, ignore the missed games, ignore the yearly rehab arcs, ignore the ridiculous cap hit, ignore the elite offensive weapons, and ignore reality itself…

He's the GOAT!!!

Meanwhile:

"BDS!"
"It’s the defense!!"
"He had a paper cut!!"
“He’s a WARRIOR!!!!"

I mean...

"BDS", my ass!

Shouldn’t even be playing right now — only player to ever return same season after injury

And he looks like the best QB in the NFL

I guess you don't want your own team's press conferences.

Burrow's done, dude.

Which honestly sucks, because then I'll need a new punching bag.

No one is more fun - or easier - to roast than Batmobile Joey.

Imagine losing 27-10 in a home playoff game to a punching bag lol

Literally one of the saddest stories in sports history if they can't win a Super Bowl.
