After the first Baltimore game we got to play the NFCS, which helps. Lol.. but I am not talking about accumulation, I talking about taking over a game or showing just pure dominance. In 2021 I always had the belief that Chase could take it to the house at any given time or just say "I am going to be uncoverable, let me put this offense on my back". 

Again, I said second list, so I am not calling him a bum or anything because the second list is still discussing top-10 WRs so still very very very good at football. I am just saying he didn't have the same potentially-best-WR-in-the-NFL level dominance that was so clearly there in his rookie year.

Burrow's QB Rating targeting Chase
2021: 116.5 (8.2 higher than Burrow's season rating)
2022: 98.7 (2.1 lower than Burrow's season rating)

I'm not overly concerned if Chase doesn't take over a game every single week.
There are plenty of instances where these other guys don't.

Look at Justin Jefferson for example.
He had 6 games with under 50 yards receiving last year, 7 if you include the playoff game.
Are people not going to consider him among the best WRs because he had 7 games out of 18 under 50 yards receiving?

Maybe I'm in the minority for how I look at production or who I consider among the "best," but it's always been about the course of the season for me, not individual games.
