This is why we're blowing out the Ravens in Baltimore. We are witnessing history with this team.

Absolutely nutty seasons by all by specifically Chase. That man is NUTS. At 1,831 yards, he is about 100 yards off from setting the single season record.
In his first season.

Not trying to pick nits, but is Higgins really having a fine season? He’s honestly been pretty underwhelming relative to expectations.

He's on pace for 768 yards and 6 scores despite missing 2 games.
..and he had some crucial grabs today on 3rd down. Slightly under expectations, yes, but it's still good production.

Such a nice luxury that we may have never witnessed before at this level in Cincy.
Seems like every move made in offseason paid off as good as it could.
These Bengals are legit and the next 3 years is a very nice window of opportunity to get it done before Chase and Burrow break the bank.

Agreed. Almost every move has been best case scenario.
We have a short window starting now to take advantage and get a ring.

I just can’t get over how different Burrow looked against the Ravens today. He was BRUTAL against them last year, and outside the brain fart pick, he absolutely dominated that defense. Just sending a ton of pressure at him isn’t enough anymore…

He just has "it"
It's hard to define exactly what "it" is but he has it. Born leader

Is Burrow a consideration for Comeback Player of the Year?

Yes.
Burrow - 5-2 1956 yards 17 TD 8 INT 108.9 passer rating
Dak - 5-1 1813 yards 16 TD 4 INT 115.0 passer rating
Dak has the slight edge at the moment, but it’s getting closer. He’s been better at not turning the ball over, but he also plays in a dog shit division, and hasn’t really beaten anybody good except the Chargers.
I’d say Burrow has a good shot at it if he can clean up the picks, and continues to ball out like this.

Up against a Cowboy? America's team? Probably second only to the Steelers in media love. Makes it closer than it should be.

It’s arguable that sending pressure against him may be a bad idea. He has flourished when the blitz has been brought this season.

Yes. Nicomo already mentioned this but it is down to Dak and Burrow IMO.

Very simple. He has talent of course but as a competitor he’s pretty much a psychopath ala Tom Brady. That doesn’t mean he will ever be Tom Brady but it’s a similar trait

Agree, similar traits. Just cast iron will to be successful. And it's infectious

I thought each side had a comeback player, one NFC and AFC??
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
