A far cry from performing like a “generational talent”, Joe Burrow has been a profoundly average QB this year. While certainly not a bust, is it fair to say Joe has been somewhat of a disappointment? (alien.top)

Joe is:

18th in TD%
13th in yards/game
16th in passer rating
19th in ANY/A
27th in yards/attempt
18th in QBR

Burrow also has the 3rd highest percent of throws from a clean pocket . Additionally, Ravens players believed Burrow was faking his injury to generate an excuse for his poor play

I mean... The logical thing is just that he's been hurt most of the year so far? I feel like it's a reach to say he's been faking an injury

It's also worse this year because Higgins and Boyd have had a large number of drive ending drops.

Burrow is not even close to a disappointment, and he was never considered a "generational talent" either. In fact, his rise to become the #1 overall pick kinda appeared out of nowhere when Chase Young was the consensus #1 for over a year. Also, Burrow lead an historically inept franchise to a Super Bowl appearance.
