I think it's worth noting that Ja'Marr Chase, fortunately, has been healthy for his rookie season. He's started all 16 games this year and made significant contributions as a rookie.

2020 - Burrow hurt his knee and played in 10 games.
2019 - Jonah missed his entire draft/rookie year.
2018 - Price played in 10 games.
2017 - Ross only played in 3 games.
2016 - Jackson III did play in 15 games.

From '17 to '20 the top pick wasn't able to contribute as much as hoped, so it's good Chase has been able to stay healthy, earn his playing time, and play at an elite level to help the team win the AFC North.

Not a superstitious person....but when I see posts about people not getting hurt, or not fumbling in a long time, or not throwing a pick in X number of passes, I do get a little stitious.

If Chase gets hurt against the Browns, it's 100% on me. I'll take the blame.

This is HUGE for this team. Our 1st rounders every year have been hurt. This was bound to stop eventually thank God.

Mods can delete this shit... Right?

Yeah, I'd wait on this thread until the post season is over. But Chase is built differently for a wideout. Couldn't be more thrilled with our last two top picks. We could not have done better with those selections.

Nah. That's like trying to put a fart back in your butt.

You say this like it's something you have tried.

Best to just walk away, and claim someone else did it.

Among other things he's put in his butt?

With certain amounts of practice and muscle training, I believe this is achievable.
