It’s ridiculous hindsight to compare 2019 Burrow to 2018 Haskins, when 2018 Haskins >>> 2018 Burrow *

Follow Ups:

• This answers it IMO. Those folks are Twitter-its ! * - 1$’s 2¢ [19:18:17 01/24/23]
• And really, they're comparing Burrow as a pro to Haskins as a pro, which has nothing to do with Ohio State * - JK's Jump Cut [12:29:08 01/24/23]
  • It's complete dumbnity, but then again, it's Twitter. Although I've seen the same sentiments expressed elsewhere. * - Mr.C [12:33:35 01/24/23]
• Once Haskins won the TUN game, the competition was over * - Purgatory Buck [12:21:32 01/24/23]
  • And Haskins should have started in 2017 * - Walt Grace [12:32:56 01/24/23]
    • Would have been tough to start him after JTB's magnificent PSU game. Maybe the conference title game - Mr.C [12:38:11 01/24/23]
      • I get that it would have been tough to do, but it was the right move and Meyer was paid to make the tough decisions - Walt Grace [13:16:19 01/24/23]
        • Right, but we know that only in hindsight. Nobody saw the Iowa loss coming 7 days after that PSU win. * - Mr.C [13:18:30 01/24/23]
          • I am not referring to hindsight. He should have been able to look at what both offer and make the right choice. - Walt Grace [13:25:54 01/24/23]
            • Joe had a broken right throwing hand in 2017 putting him out for most of the year. Dwayne was not physically ready (m) - Barrett777 [14:21:04 01/24/23]
            • He did and he did based on a long history of excellence in decision making. * - TellMe [13:48:26 01/24/23]
            • We don't know that 2017 Haskins/Burrow were better options than JTB, though. It's possible but not conclusive. * - Mr.C [13:31:35 01/24/23]
              • But didn't you ever get the feeling that we were testing the definition of insanity w/Barrett? * - 00BuckShot [13:51:18 01/24/23]
                • Not up to and through that PSU game - the 2017 offense was destroying everyone but Oklahoma - Mr.C [14:34:57 01/24/23]
      • Should have replaced Burrow after Oklahoma IMO* - Hanawi [12:52:08 01/24/23]
        • JTB you mean - I doubt Haskins (or Burrow) was ready at that point. But maybe. * - Mr.C [12:56:35 01/24/23]
  • Absolutely. And even 2019-level Burrow wasn't going to make our 2018 defense any better. - Mr.C [12:23:39 01/24/23]
  • Very difficult to unsee that, yes. * - SaltLakeCity Buck [12:22:11 01/24/23]
