If the Vegas Odds ring true, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is going to be in line for a big season. Caesars Sportsbook in Las Vegas has Burrow's passing odds for this season set at 3,764.5 yards for the 2020 NFL season.

Last season, Kyler Murray had the most passing yards for rookie gunslingers at 3,722. Carson Wentz was the last rookie quarterback to go over 3,764 yards. During the 2016 season, Wentz threw for 3,782 yards.

If Burrow were able to throw for 3,765 yards last season he would have ranked 15th overall, right above Murray, another former Heisman Trophy winner. He would have been ahead of players like Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, Kirk Cousins, and Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Last season Andy Dalton and Ryan Finley combined to throw for 3,968 yards, so if Burrow were to match that he would go well over the posted total.

Joe Burrow had a standout 2019 season with the LSU Tigers after being much of a nonfactor during his career at Ohio State. There has been talk from some that he might be a one-hit wonder, and struggle with the Bengals. Former Ohio State coach, Urban Meyer said on Colin Cowherd's show he doesn't see anyway that Burrow becomes that.

“Colin, I don’t believe that’s criticism,” Meyer said via Austin Nivison. “I believe that’s factual. A one-hit wonder, that’s better than a no-hit wonder. I mean, he had arguably the best season in the history of college football. Yes, he was on a great team, but when you start studying the film, the throws he made weren’t to a bunch of wide open guys now. He placed that ball. He scrambled. He kept those plays alive. So yeah, he’s a one-hit wonder. He was a little later developing, but I don’t look at that as concern. It’s factual … I’ll say this about Joe. If it wasn’t for what happened, it would be a major risk. Reality is, he had arguably the greatest season in history a quarterback has ever had. So, that overrules the fact that he only did it for one year.”

Burrow's first year will go a long way in knowing if Burrow is a one-hit wonder, or if he could be a future Hall of Famer.
