huskyhater75 242 Posted September 11, 2022 Pregame show he's talking how he needs to get rid of the ball quickly-FIRST PLAY he's sacked-and THEN throws an interception. So much for his "smart QB" talk. I see where Cincy might need to run it more this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huskyhater75 242 Posted September 11, 2022 ANOTHER INT! He's now completed as many passes to Pittsburg as he has to his own guys-NICE job "stud". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gratefulegg1973 253 Posted September 11, 2022 And another. And another. As a Steeler fan I love it. As someone playing against Pitt D I'm pissed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easilyscan 575 Posted September 11, 2022 Lamar Jackson isn't exactly lighting it up either. Can't believe he turned down 250 million He might actually be as dumb as he looks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huskyhater75 242 Posted September 11, 2022 HAHA I really think he's gonna be bust of the year, making Pittsburg DEF look like HOF'ers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't believe he turned down 250 million He might actually be as dumb as he looks. I had him last year, I guess I have a knack for picking POS QBs. But I CAN embrace it-with the help of a few beers! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrG 94 Posted September 11, 2022 Pre season level execution to be expected at times. Burrow will be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huskyhater75 242 Posted September 11, 2022 He had problems against them last year too, my opponent today has J Herbert at QB (that game might end up 85-80) so it's a double-edged sword today, my bad against his good/great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't believe he turned down 250 million He might actually be as dumb as he looks. its possible. the life of a running QB generally isnt a long one. you take the guaranteed cash when you can get it. I honestly think whats the diff between 200 mil and 250 mil? will you live your life differently? I"d suggest you shouldnt. as long as the number is in the ballpark of what fair market value is, you should be taking the deal. even moreso as a running QB because he may never have the kind of leverage he has now. if he gets hurt as many running QB's do, he'll be very sad he walked from that deal. and the name of the game is securing your financial future. that offer provided a lot of security. I know there is the desire to break records and all that, but rolling the dice like this is irresponsible. either way, its not my problem. this is where having an agent may have helped him some but only in the sense of adjusting his expectations 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No one knows what the future holds, maybe he'll have a sensational year and be able to command the number he wants ? But damn, even if his net of the 133 mil was 'only' 70 mil, keep 20 liquid to live on, another 40 in ultra conservative investments, & the last 10 in aggressive investments. He would be set for a helluva long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
