Burrow is a great example of the inconsistency of NFL fans and media. Dude is always hurt, has never won anything in the NFL, yet always gets included in the top 5 QB convo automatically. It just shows that when you have a reputation and a draft pedigree, people will give you endless chances. They'll dismiss every bad game with excuses.
Nobody has ever claimed Burrow is just coasting on Zac Taylor's offense, or overperforming because he has Jamar Chase and Tee Higgins.
Purdy has to move mountains just to get a little credit, and even then its mostly ignored as being a product of his surroundings. Then one bad game and hes back at the bottom with everyone saying "See, we told you he sucked. Finally came back to earth." Burrow and Purdy are a great example of how people view you as the number 1 pick vs the 262nd pick.
