I'd be tempted to go w/ Sewell in Rd1. 

I still take Chase.  

Chase, honestly, doesn't really get the credit he deserves for the culture change with the Bengals.  This was still a terri-bad team Burrow's rookie year.  There were a number of games early in the year that weren't looking good until Chase would pull out his ridiculous pre-halftime deep TD grab to keep us in the game.  And the KC game, where we really truly shook that pretender label... that's Wyatt Earp at the creek level shut, there.  When you consider the opponent, the playoff implications, the franchise impact, and what he actually did, that is arguably the greatest single game performance in the history of the franchise.
