Gotta be Sir Kicks-a-Lot.
That said, Reader was an absolute STUD today.
Lots of clutch plays on D as well.

Shooter, with an honorable mention to our entire D. They never gave in.

I will say if we had Dalton starting we wouldn’t have scored 10 points. Burrow played well considering the constant pressure. 9 sacks but 350 yards. Dalton would’ve sprinkled in more turnovers and wouldn’t have broke 200 yards.
That 4th down stop was huge as were the picks on D. But McPherson had basically all of our points, and two 50 yarders. Didn’t miss one kick and hit a clutch game winner. Easy decision for me. He was the difference as the titans weren’t confident to even attempt a 50 yarder, and we hit two.

It’s obviously McPherson (never let someone tell you a kicker is a wasted draft pick again), but a very honorable mention to Burrow. My god what a tough son of a *****.
Also - Chase with back-to-back 100 + yards playoff games. We have an absolute superstar in #1.

I mean, you rarely get a win without a few people or position groups doing a good job. We knows who were absolutely horse hockey, but we had a lot of people doing well.

Shooter.
Best Kicker we have ever had. Saved Burrow's ass and all our asses. Rock on Evan McPherson!
What a great game by DJ Reader and Logan Wilson BTW. AFC Championship! WTF?!!!

I don't remember ever, in 50 years of rooting for the Bengals, having faith in a kicker from over 50 yards.
For the first kick of 50 yards, the announcers thought the Bengals were out of field goal range. I mean 54 yards in a tight game.

Went Evan as he gets it solo. I’d give it to the whole D over him though. Can’t pick one guy on D who deserves it more than Evan.

Yes. And Burrow still remained calm. I mean it was a record number of sacks, and there were even two wiped out (one by delay of game and one by a time out). A Titan fan stated before the game, lets sack Burrow enough that he sees ghosts. Good luck with that.

Exactly...although Reader is close. Lots of guys had big games on D.
