Both his OL and DL have been consistently #1 on many rankings I’ve seen. Dude played great last year, not trying to take anything away from him, but let’s be honest he walked into a great situation.

Chase otoh plays for a franchise that hadn’t won a single playoff game in 30 + years before his arrival. A team that didn’t even sniff the playoffs the year before despite having Joe Burrow (they weren’t making it even if he didn’t get injured). Chase has been about as impactful as you can get. He helped the Bengals win back-to-back division titles for the first time in franchise history, and has broken a bunch of records in his 2 years. Not only in the regular season, but the postseason as well.

If this is based solely off last season then it makes sense it’s Hurts, but if it’s entire body of work in the NFL so far it’s Chase.

The 3-1 without Chase argument is pretty silly too. Those were some bad teams they played over that stretch.
