Burrow needs to do more in the playoffs. He should have a SB by now considering the opportunities he got in the 4th quarter. His profile has been built up because he beat Mahomes' team once. He also lacks the availability aspect that you need from a great franchise QB.
With the injury history, losing his OC, playing in the AFCN and downgrading his weapons due to FA, he will have to justify his place in the QB hierarchy. Right now it is solely based on catching Mahomes in an off-game. Relying purely on inexplicable opponent screwups is not a plan.
