Yes, Chase Brown's day was terrific. Burrow and Brown were a toss-up for me. I had concern going into the game that the Titan's defense would put a collar on Burrow and Ja'Marr and knock them off their league-leading positions, but I guess there isn't a defense that can slow them down this year. Too bad they don't get to play against the Bengal's defense.

I wonder if their pass defense is actually all that good. They had the 27th scoring defense coming into today, so I am wondering if between being 31st in giveaways and 30th in net punting they just keep giving the opponents short fields to score TDs so they don't NEED to get yards to win.
The Lions for instance only threw for 61 yards when they beat the Titans 52-14. Of the 5 games they allowed the least amount of passing yards on this year, they are 1-4 with the 1 win coming against Tyler Huntley.

scoring defense is a very misleading stat if the team's offense is putrid

I chose "other" because you failed to add Tee. 5/88/1 with 2 hellacious hits and he managed to stay in the game.

I gave it to Chase Brown. Dude has been one of the best all around weapons in the league for a while now.

Love seeing Chase slash through the middle of the line.
Played NFL 2K2 last night for the first time in a while (beat the Browns 91-3 lol) and I scored my first TD EVER on a draw for over 20 yards up the middle (CD always scores for me on goal line plays or ISO plays, otherwise everything is to the outside) and Chase reminded me of that today, just getting big chunks constantly, it seemed.

It’s kind of gone under the radar but Joe set a new franchise record for passing TD’s today. 36 and counting. He has a good shot at 40 with 3 games left.

Brian Callahan. Mans is cultivating a shitshow in Nashville. Honorary mention goes to Tvondre sweat. That run back and Cappa stiffy had me rolling.

I'm not sure there's even a word to describe how pathetic they are?
But I'll go C, Brown. Other than the top guys he's been one of the very few bright spots.
I'm really liking what I see from Chase Brown.

Tee Higgins now ranks 3rd in his draft class in Yards and TDs behind Justin Jefferson and CeeDee Lamb. He is 4th in receptions behind Jefferson, Lamb, and Michael Pittman (who has like 80 more catches and 60 less yards than Tee which is kinda crazy.)

Chase Brown gets my vote. He's been a real highlight this season proving he can get the job done.

I think he will hit 45. Doesn't mean he will, just my prediction.

He will join some pretty elite company if he can hit 40.
