Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has enjoyed such an impressive start to his NFL career that he only needs to average 261. 2 passing yards per game over his last nine games to break Andrew Luck’s eight-year-old record of 4,374 passing yards by a rookie.
It seems like he’s a good bet to do it when you consider that he has thrown for 300 or more yards in five of his last six starts. But oddsmakers have set Burrow as a +200 underdog.

Burrows Making Fewer Mistakes Than Most Rookies
Composure, clarity, consistency: That’s what separates Burrow from most rookie quarterbacks. He is far from perfect on his reads, but he has less panic in him than most rookies. He sees the field better than he should for a player who played his first NFL game last month
Most of the time, Burrow makes the right play, as his 66.4% completion percentage would confirm. He has only thrown five interceptions. Many veteran quarterbacks have thrown for more.
He is improving every week. Last week, he had his best game, going 35-of-47 for 406 yards and three touchdowns. He also ran for 34 yards and a touchdown.
Joe Burrow is the only rookie QB in NFL history with 400+ passing yards, 3 passing TD and a rushing TD in a single game.
He’s on pace for 4,624 passing yards, which would shatter Andrew Luck’s record of 4,374 and already has 5 300-yard passing games.
The real deal.

Burrow Has More Sizzle Than Luck Had in 2012
Nothing illustrates Burrow’s status as a franchise quarterback more than the reality that he will, barring injury, blow away Luck’s record of six 300+ passing yardage games.
It helps that Burrow’s completion percentage of 66.4% this season is much better than Luck’s 54.1% in 2012. Luck and Burrow boast similar levels of poise and confidence.
After seven starts, Burrow already has five playing for a poor team. The Bengals are 1-5-1 this season. Luck’s Indianapolis Colts team was 11-5. Luck’s career percentage was 60.4%.
The Bengals definitely have a QB now they need an offensive line.

Bengals More Weapons Than You Think
Although the Bengals are not a quality football team, Burrow has some skilled performers on his offense. Tyler Boyd has 48 catches (517 yards), and Tee Higgins has three TD catches. A.J. Green owns 29 catches and is a former All-Pro.
Thanks to Burrow, the Bengals can put points on the board, although they are not without their problems.
What we know for sure: the Bengals will be behind plenty, and Burrow will mostly be throwing in an effort to keep his team in the game. That’s a positive for a player trying to break a passing record.

It’s A Good Bet Burrow Will Break the Record
Given how sharply Burrow has played thus far, this bet is primarily about Burrow’s ability to stay healthy. The threat of injury is probably his biggest obstacle to claiming the record.
When you consider that Burrow has already been sacked 28 times in seven games, the threat is not insignificant. Only four other QBs (Carson Wentz, DeShaun Watson, Gardner Minshew, and Daniel Jones) have been sacked 20 or more times this season. Burrow is on a pace to be sacked 64 times this season.
But betting he will break the record seems like the better option at +200. Given his week-to-week consistency, he should be able to rack up the yards he needs.
