Tua vs Burrow

[Finland]

Don’t recall discussion on this after Week 4.

It certainly stood out to me (in that game anyway) that Burrow was not nearly as good as Tua in that department. There were multiple times I thought, “that was kind not so good when I watched some of his off target throws”.

It made me appreciative of the accuracy in Miami.

Tua didn’t play against Burrow.....Tua played against their defense and Burrow played against ours.

When I evaluated both QBs my takeaway was that Burrow processed things a bit faster, but Tua was more accurate. Tua tended to go through his progressions more consistently, but Burrow was sometimes more decisive. I think that's part of the reason that Chase is a better fit with Burrow. Burrow will tend to throw it up and just count on his guy to catch it more often. In my experience that leads more inconsistent results. You could have a great year like Cincy did last year, but you could also have some high INT years where your QB is the reason you're losing games.

And Tua’s INT was a sound decision, just poorly executed (threw it way too late), but otherwise, it’s exactly like you said…his accuracy was sizzling.

The play where Tua got hurt is disturbing on multiple levels. The biggest, imo, and one that Sullivan goes over is the the multiple choices Tua had with time. There were several receivers that were open and he had room to take off with the ball if he chose to.

But he just sat there. Burning to know what he was thinking/waiting for.

It’s one think of nothings open and he was waiting for somethjng. But that wasn’t the case.

The original post should have said "accuracy department" not "that department" in case it
was confusing.

Burrow hasn't looked as good as he did last season (yet). If I recall, he didn't have much playing time during preseason, if any.

Tua versus Burrow and Herbert definitely feels like a better discussion this season. Let's see how it plays out.

But the play he got injured on was a lack of decisiveness. That play was there, but he hesitated.

This is tough but I'm gonna have to go with Burrow because he's taller therefore his reach should be better. He can just jab Tua up and keep him away and I don't think Tua has the quickness to counter. Now if it's in the octagon I'm going with Tua because he has those thick legs that probably have a lot of power in his kicks.

What if its a No DQ, street fight type wrestling match?
