However, as has pointed out numerous times by other posters, when Chase doesn't have success, the Bengals don't have success.
Beyond that, he's a great young player that will help the team be more successful in years to come. People should be happy for him.
Well when you're targeting a guy 7+ times per game and he only has a 51% catch rate on 5.3 yards/target with numerous drops and a couple fumbles (looking at Chase's previous 5 games), it stands to reason that it will hurt the team's chances of winning.
You can't use our recent losing ways as proof that we live or die by Chase having big games. It's not like he's just not having big games, he was actively contributing to our losses by being terrible, frankly.
Glad he rebounded yesterday though, and wish we would've kept throwing in OT.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
