In a short video clip from the Cincinnati Bengals’ YouTube channel, which can be found here, Kurt Warner outlined what would make for a successful debut season in stripes for top overall draft pick, Joe Burrow. The main take away is that the LSU product shouldn’t be judged on his statistics or win-loss ratio, but rather his consistency and ability to make the Bengals competitive in each contest.
Terms like “franchise savior” are being attached to Burrow and some optimistic fans are talking playoffs in 2020, despite last year’s 2-14 record. Anything could happen, but what Warner lays out is far more realistic.
