I have to go with Perine, as tough as Burrow was after getting knocked around in the middle of the game.  Higgins was huge and that was the quietest 150 yard performance ever because it was all average distance targets.  He accumulated that kind of yardage by being consistent, reliable receiver.  And did the Bengals ever need it.  The entire defense played really well and seems to be adapting to a zone scheme pretty well. 

One complaint would be that the defensive line coach needs to teach guys to keep their eyes on QB in short down and distances and time a jump to batt or tip more passes.  They often lead to INTs and they rarely lead to completions. 

I wish to formally apologize to Perine for ever suggesting he should lose playing time to Chris Evans.  He had 3 TD receptions on just 4 targets.  So, I motion that the game plan for Tennessee should be to to target Perine 20 times, which will obviously lead to 15 TDs.  Wish we had learned this earlier.

In all seriousness, Burrow is becoming Prime Brady lethal because he has learned how to take what is given and is now using his RBs, TEs, and WRs.  Defenses simply can't take it all away and he will take what is given.  I also LOVED the play where he was scrambling and rather than take a hit, he flings it out wide to Mixon, who turned it in to a 9 yard gain.  

I sure wish we had Chico, but this team is starting to gel and look out when Chase returns.  

Yeah, and Chido too....
