Klatt knew his stuff big time and he used to like Lawrence better at one time, so no bias by him.

I liked Lawrence better than Burrow for sure last year too. You cannot argue with what we saw this last season though.

Unarguably the best season by any QB in college of all time. Burrow it up and send in the card now.

Yes and it's not even close. Who knows what Lawrence ends up being ? Who knows what Burrow ends up being, for that matter. But right now Burrow is just plain better.

Well, guess what?

This m'fer spews more bs and misinformation than anyone. He consistantly just spits out verbal diarhea based only on his perception. I can't stand this guy.  

PS UC was ranked last season as well and returned almost everyone. It's not like this season was unexpected or they were Little Sisters of the Poor going into that game. Not to mention that game has been part of a much bigger picture scheduling wise. It's been in the works for years, pushed back, rescheduled and has ties to the home and home agreement just played in basketball. It wasn't a one-off and UC is HUGE step-up from what some of these other big schools schedule.

And Clemson didn't schedule DICK this year, so Cowherd can keep his dumbass opinions (and failing ratings...I mean, getting your arse handed to you by Dan LeBatard?) to himself.

Lawrence is a winner, a tough guy playing QB who will do anything to win, he already has proven that in 2 years of college.

Again, why do we have fans knock others to make their choice look better? I think Lawrence too will be a very good NFL QB, being great is not exclusive to one QB.

Burrow is not a one year wonder, he has had two very good years playing against the best defenses in college.  The one thing that separates Burrow from his peers is the touch he has on all of his passes.  Short-intermediate-deep passes are all catchable.  He has a quick release and his ball placement is elite.  

After reading some of the threads on this forum I have reached the conclusion that Burrow could lead the Bengals to 2 straight super-bowls and some fans will still want to trade him.  Some fans cannot accept the gift the Bengals were given this off season.

It is not that difficult.  Draft OL this season and give Burrow some weapons, then fix the defense next two seasons.  "Cool Joe"  is coming to the Bengals and the rest of the jealous fans and biased media pundits can suck it.
