QB Joe Burrow (transfer to LSU, 2019 Heisman Winner, National Champion, Cincinnati Bengals)

[sparcboxbuck]

A tweet I saw after Burrow made an int of a deep pass

"Burrows INTs now equal.. caught as many as he's thrown"

What the heck are they doing with him playing both ways in the playoffs?

 

[Roll Red Roll]

He plays defense in big games.

This kid is very much under the radar. So happy to see him in S&G.

The more and more I hear about this guy, the more I like him:

Joe Burrow slips out of the pocket, gets a big block, and cruises for a 58-yard touchdown run. Athens comes out with high pace, it worked

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 48m 48 minutes ago
Burrow escapes pressure again...scrambles for 41-yard touchdown. DeSales burned twice now when it brought pressure.

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 15m 15 minutes ago
Burrow to Adam Luehrman on a deep in...easily beats 1-on-1 coverage for 16-yard TD. PAT good, Athens leads DeSales, 26-14, 4:01, 2Q

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 14m 14 minutes ago
Burrow tonight: 11-of-12 passing, 145 yards, 1 TD. 113 yards rushing, 2 TDs.

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 8m 8 minutes ago
Two more completions for Burrow...Bulldogs inside the 15 with plenty of time left. Burrow now 13 of 14 for 184 yards

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 6m 6 minutes ago
Burrow steps up, throws right and find sliding catch by Ryan Luehrman for the 12-yard TD. Athens leads 32-14, 29.3 secs, 2Q

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 2m 2 minutes ago
Burrow to Ryan Luehrman down the seam....24 yards and a touchdown. Bulldogs' beatdown underway. Athens 39, DeSales 14, 6.1 secs, 2Q

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 1m 1 minute ago
Burrow's line: 16 of 19 passing, 233 yards, 3 TDs. 113 rushing yards, 2 TDs.

Unreal numbers for a state playoff game.

EDIT: Just to add one more...

@JasonAmessenger @jjhuddlenews Burrow is the best pure passer I have ever seen at the high school level.

Just insane stats. I want to nitpick something, but the kid put up great numbers

Joey Burrow's pass is batted in the air.. Burrow catches it and takes it into the endzone. Athens leads 46-14. 8:54 left in game.


so Burrow now has thrown as many interceptions as he has intercepted.. equaled by the number he has caught for TDs

 

[ShowMeBuck]

Wow. That's all I got.

My guy @TimSports10TV just got back from Logan with some Joe Burrow highlights ... cue Buford T Justice, that kid is an 'attention getta'.

All I can say is whoever has Joe Burrow on their fantasy football team they had one heck of a day today.

These numbers put him in Lendak territory.

Don't hurt 'em, Joey:

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 3h 3 hours ago
Athens shows pooch punt with Burrow...he instead finds open guy down the seam for 26 yards. Nifty play/option there

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 3h 3 hours ago
Joe Burrow continues to amaze. He just caught a touchdown pass...from himself

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 3h 3 hours ago
Burrow tonight: 19 of 25 passing, 262 yards, 3 TDs. Rushing -- 5 for 135 yards, 2 TDs. Receiving -- 1 for 5 yards, 1 TD.

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 3h 3 hours ago
Burrow hits Trae Williams on a slant, clocked by 2 defenders. Williams scores from 49 yards out. Both defenders help Burrow up

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 3h 3 hours ago
Burrow now: 23 of 29, 337 yards, 5 TDs. 135 yards rushing, 2 more scores. Making strong case for Mr. Football tonight

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 2h 2 hours ago
467 total yards, 7 TDs, 1 'omg' play = decent RT @Joe_Burrow10 Decent night with my friends

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 14m 14 minutes ago
Flat out asked Burrow if tonight's game won him Ohio's AP Mr. Football award. "I sure hope so."

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 13m 13 minutes ago
On his TD catch: "“I really didn’t want to throw the interception so I thought I might as well go catch it." Said it fell right in his lap

And this is the quote I like the most:

Jason Arkley @JasonAmessenger · 13m 13 minutes ago
The OSU recruit hasn't been to any Buckeye games in 2014. “I usually just stay at home and watch some film on the team we’re playing."

Burrow showed some good wheels probably in the 4.55 to 4.6 range on his 2 long runs. His touch and accuracy were really on display. He didn't get a chance to show off his arm strength in the game but showed it warming up on the sidelines. With the temperature in the high teens, he had to make catchable balls for his receivers. Burrow elevates the play of everyone around him because of his accuracy. His receivers didn't create much seperation.

Sounds like a slightly taller JT to me...I will take all of them.

[ScarletInMyVeins]

LOL! He was doing the Bosa shrug on his way back to the sideline.

 

[Roll Red Roll]

I believe this kid could step in right away as a true freshman and dominate in Urban's offense. Fortunately we won't have to worry about that for a few years!
