Catches ~ WR, TE and even Backs

Might not seem like much looking back but that was a tough catch with a guy all over his back. That was a game changing play. How many times have we seen the Bengals have a decent start to a drive early in a game, to just barely miss a 3rd down conversion and it results in us playing from behind the next time we touch the ball?

If he misses that, and nobody would have blamed him for it, we punt instead of eating clock and getting TD and momentum early. Huber is punting so it probably only goes 30 yards or so. Carolina is feeling good and set up with decent field position. Who knows what happens at that point. Little plays like that can have a huge impact. People may say I’m crazy but I think that was the single most important play in the game last week.

5. Thomas ~ mehhh - “mehhh” is way too nice of a way to describe Thomas as a WR lol

Agree.  That was in fact the biggest play of the game.  If you go back and watch that play it looked like the primary target was Boyd and it wasn't there.  Burrow then had to drift away from pressure and at the last minute find Hurst who was like you say blanketed.  That was a great play and soooo important.
