Saint- Falcons game

Chase.........15 catches
Boyd...........14 catches
Higgins........11 catches
Hurst............9 catches
Mixon...........7 catches

Seems like a nice balance of distribution of the football to me in the recent games where the Bengals have looked good.  

Yet agree with others early in season that Burrow was forcing it to Chase. Felt that one of the many reasons that the Bengals were struggling out of the gate.

Question will be how does the offense change with no Ja'Marr Chase. The Bengals have seen alot of cover 2 zones because of Chase but without him I expect more man coverage especially press/bump and run against Tee. 

Without speed on the offense the Bengals will have to win vs man and create space underneath.
