Burrow looked great finally, but IDK how anyone cannot vote for Chase.

JaMarr was a beast yesterday....and typically he'd get the nod. However, with what we've seen going into this game, I'm going Joe Burrow. He finally put it together and played like we're used to seeing. He hasn't made people miss, he hasn't ran for first downs, and he hasn't been that accurate. It was the bounce back he needed.

I am happy but also concerned that we don't have a pass catching TE who is reliable and the options at RB aren't great either. Add in Tee being out and it isn't that surprising that Chase ended up getting fed a lot.

Do that again next week Housh.

I'm picking us to lose every week now, Lmao. I picked them to kick our ass, but didn't post a score.

I'm rolling with the same superstition. Go other team! They'll destroy the Bengals (secretly, I know this brings a 'W' to the Bengals).

Why do some folks always want to start an argument? 

Seems there used to ba a poster around here that loved doing that.

Because Joe of last week wouldn't have been able to deliver many of those passes, let alone that beautiful deep ball that hit JaMarr in stride.

If this game were the Super Bowl, Burrow is getting the MVP because of the high profile position he plays. Burrow is always going to hand the honor to his skill players. Both are deserving of a game ball but I still went with Chase since big games from QBs are more typical.

It was nice seeing Chase dominate.

Yes, yes it was.  Just like it was nice seeing him get his name in the Bengals all-time record books!

Just under 8,000 yards until he passed Chad for #1.

I mean, CTB has turned into a pretty good NFL CB. There’s really nothing to “argue” about at this point.

He’s not perfect, and will continue to have some growing pains (comes with the position), but I never understood the thinking that he couldn’t play on the outside.

[XenoMorph]

well considering he just broke a franchise record for catches in a Game ill go with Chase for this one.

A good night = a lot of game balls ?

Pretty much the same choices as the OP, except Zac also gave the OL one (that will go over well here :lol: ), and Kwamie Lassiter also got an honorary game ball.

[Speedy Thomas]

Lots of strong contributions, including from some unlikely players, but good Lord, people, don't overcomplicate it.

The Volson and Karras grades surprise me. Agree with Jonah having a nice game though.

I went with Chase, but CTB had the play of the game.
