A season of records (if nothing else)

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Some final tallies for the best on the team:

Joe Burrow

460* / 652* (70.6%*), 4,918 yards*, 45 TDs* (2 rushing), 9 INTs, 7.5 ypa

Ja'Marr Chase

127 receptions*, 1,708 yards*, 17 TDs**, 13.4 ypc

Trey Hendrickson

17.5 sacks**

* Franchise record
** Ties franchise record (Carl Pickens and Trey Hendrickson)

Burrow just barely eclipsed Ken Anderson's longstanding completion percentage record by the following margin:

70.55214
70.55016

Cade York tied for the franchise longest field goal

Yeah glad for the guys but sad that they will probably miss the post season

If you would have told me before the season that this team’s best players would have those individual stats I would have assumed at least 12 wins.

Coy Bacon had 21.5 sacks in 1976 (or was it 1977?), but it wasn't officially kept by the NFL at that point. 

Still, that is one that can be counted pretty accurately retroactively back to a certain point, and has been. 

Officially, Hendrickson has it. In reality, Bacon does.

That is the key, to a player it probably means they have to outdo themselves again next year to win a ring, meanwhile mahomes looking average and nearly didn’t lose a game. I put it on coaching.

Can't get an incompletion if you take a sack rather than throw it away.

People are just trying to find something to celebrate at what could be the end of season.

If you want to piss in some cheerios go piss in your own

Hendrickson if Bengals can extend him is a super strong contender for the Bengals Ring of Honor.

That is my biggest beef with Burrow.  He seems to worry too much about completion percentage.  Throw it away if it isn't there but he usually just takes a sack instead
