Anyone still think Tee will be our #1?

There was a time when the Colts had a pretty good trio
Wayne = Chase
Garçon = Higgins
Collie = Boyd

But Boyd is better than Collie and Higgins I think is better than garçon. Chase worse than Wayne at this point in his career.

On paper they look to be deadly, especially since Burrow doesn’t play favorites. Very excited to see what it looks like on the field in the new jerseys!

For me, it is the 2005 Bengals....Even though we rarely got to see the three of them on the field together due to injuries, etc., it was a lethal combination.  

TJ was the slot that ate underneath:  That is Tyler Boyd.
Chris Henry was the X receiver that could take the top off the defense and a big play specialist.  That can be Higgins (although Chase is really the deep ball specialist here)
Chad Johnson was the Z receiver that could do it all and I see that as Ja'Marr Chase.  

Rudi Johnson benefited greatly from this array of weapons and set the franchise single-season rushing yardage record (1458).  Although I don't know if they will give Mixon enough carries to match this, his contributions in the passing game should be a huge benefit to the Bengals this year.  He FINALLY will stay on the field on third downs!
