It is colossally unfair to put a second-year quarterback's name in the same sentence as the two greatest to play the game.
But if you watched Joe Burrow on Saturday night, when he was sacked nine times and hit 13, yet still had the calm to stand in the pocket and deliver a 19-yard pass to put the Cincinnati Bengals in game-winning field-goal range, it was hard not to see Joe Montana and Tom Brady.
The stage, the pressure, the stakes. And Burrow stepped up into the pocket and found super rookie Ja'Marr Chase on the right sideline, arguably the biggest pass of his young NFL career.
