So much for Burrow taking less so everyone else can be resigned...

Yeah, I get it and it is a nice idea to "spread it around" but at the same time. F that.

Take it all. If they want to give you more, take it. Statistically speaking this is his last contract, just going of NFL QB longevity. 4.5 years is the average career for NFL Qb's.

Take that bag and run.

Well barring injury, Burrow is clearly well above being the average QB. I know you know that, just trying to balance the statistic in question here.

He's taking the route of the winner similar to Brady and Kelce - would rather win than be the wealthiest at the position. Winning championships as the star player will bring money deals in its own right.

How is he anything like either of those two?? Burrow did the exact opposite of what you just wrote.

Ha! That is what I was thinking.

pretty fair considering what Lamar Jackson and Justin Herbert got

Contracts like that are signed for him and other players at the position. It sets a negotiation benchmark, so even if he extends or renegotiates to keep or add another OL or WR, that initial $ amount is forever.

Tbh I have no clue what his deal in question even looks like. I thought folks were saying he didn't get the bag that he should've in favor of"spreading the wealth" to win. I was just going off of context, so that's my bad.
