NFL teams often only go as far as their quarterbacks can carry them. That's certainly true when it comes to the Cincinnati Bengals and Joe Burrow.
Anyone who says Tom Brady isn't the greatest quarterback of all-time doesn't know ball. Even if TB12 himself can be overly critical of Burrow and other elite QBs of the current era, he has set the standard for what excellent looks like as a seven-time Super Bowl champion.
Patrick Mahomes is the closest to Brady in terms of career accomplishments and accolades. Until Burrow, Lamar Jackson, or Josh Allen can knock Mahomes' Chiefs off the AFC throne, anyone will be hard-pressed to come anywhere near Brady's stratosphere.
