C'mon man lol

Dude. Only some rookie QBs have success while most fail.

Why do almost all rookie TEs struggle? Rookie OLine? Why isn’t the all-pro teams stacked with rookies?

Being older gives you an advantage in most aspects. You become stronger, faster and smarter. 

Being older gave Burrow an advantage. It’s not a massive one but it is one. Why wasn’t he lighting it up last year or the year before?

I agree that through age you gain more experience - however, you still need talent to perform. Experience allows you to recognize certain looks/packages and decipher where the ball needs to go.

For example, look at Brandon Weeden. The guy was drafted at 28 years old and quickly fizzled out of the league.

Burrow was basically a coach's decision to be a backup in favor of other QBs like Kane mentioned in the previous post.
