The boys get their most impressive win of the season by dominating a 1 loss team. So who gets the much deserved Game Ball
Joe Burrow: 249 passing yards, 2 TDs, 106.7 paaser rating
Gio Bernard- 78 yards from scrimmage a both a rushing and receiving TD
Tee Higgins- 78 receiving yards on 6 catches
Auden Tate- 7 catches on 7 targets for 65 yards
Hakeem Adeniji- Pushed into service at LT
Jessie Bates- 11 tackles and a tone setting INT
Other- Explain...

I'm gonna give it to Joey B for spreading the ball around and moving the chains.
I have the Heart of a Lion! I also have a massive fine and a lifetime ban from the Pittsburgh Zoo...

Billy Price just played the best game of his career. And Quintin Spain came off the bench with only 1 1/2 practices to anchor the left side
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.

I'll give it to Adam Jones for calling out the coaching staff and throwing them under the bus, then backing over them a few more times just for good measure.
If i have to pick a current player, I'll go with Bates.

I voted other. My vote is for Price with Spain a close close second. What a game by both. The Price from the last 2 weeks since moving back to center is the one we hioed we had when he was drafted.

Dunlap for bringing his toxic attitude to Seattle. Joe for being a monster

I voted other for Bell. Sure his picks didn't count, but dude was all over the field today! Also was involved in the overturned fumble recovery.

Really hard to choose. I'd probably go with Burrow or Tyler Boyd.
Von Bell should have had two turnovers today though. It was really nice to him finally make some plays.
Auden Tate was great. He had two amazing catches. The last one he had, where he went up and go-go gadgeted a ball that looked way over his head didn't get near the talk it should have from the announcers.

I went other....the entire O line today. ZERO sacks. Running game was successful enough with Gio and Perine instead of Mixon. I might even give one to the play caller.

Boyd's catch deserves a vote if for nothing else.

The obvious answer is Joe Burrow... Maaaaybe Boyd. But how bout the protection today?
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

Went with Burrow, but this one was tough. Lot of guys played well. Joe getting it done with his “#1 WR” having 2 catches for 19 yds...

Burrow kept the defense on their heals all game and led them on multiple key TD drives. Easy decision here. Wish he didn't throw that pick at the end where the refs gave Burrow an extremely friendly PI call. It's nice to have a QB that the refs want to see win.

The awareness Burrow displayed on that throw was astounding. Boyd as well. He didn't know the ball would be there until it was.
Burrow makes plays that I only see elite, top 5 QBs make. He's one of the smartest, most aware QB's in the league--and that awareness will grow as he gains experience. He just needs to learn from the mistakes and get the INT/ fumble numbers down.
What a matchup after the bye. We are severely over-matched in terms of overall talent--mainly up front. The Steelers have a legit defense. Nice to have the bye to prepare, but I expect things could get ugly.
