Joe Burrow’s health isn’t only the biggest question mark for his season. At this point, it’s the only one.
As NFL.com’s Nick Shook pointed out in his recent “Way-too-early top 10 MVP candidates”, Burrow should only be viewed as second in the entire league to the Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes in terms of talent and the ability to elevate his team. (Even that might be underestimating Burrow.)
Shook writes:
If Burrow comes out hot (and lights up Kansas City in Week 2 and/or Baltimore three weeks later), he’ll throw himself squarely into the conversation with much of the season still left to play.
