So much poise for a young NFL quarterback. Football is a team sport, but the Bengals wouldn't be in this position with a lesser QB... especially with their porous offensive line.

Ja'Marr Chase has been a huge help too!

Burrow limped off the field shortly before the Bengals won it, but it's supposedly not a serious injury. Looked like one Chief stepped on his right foot as another one hit his upper body, resulting in a brief twist of Burrow's lower leg.

The Bengals definitely need to get better OL after this season is over.

This was the first Bengals game where I've watched the whole thing. He's one to watch.

... a special QB/WR combo from years ago, Montana and Rice.

I'm not referring to similarities in how they play, but rather how they can impact a game.

Burrow has been sacked more than any other NFL QB this season, and it's not because he's not reacting fast enough or doesn't have pocket awareness. It's because the Bengals offensive line is still among the worst in the NFL. That's what will probably bite them in the butt in the playoffs at some point.

Pro Football Focus (PFF), which analyzes player performance much more than relying on typical stats (such as PFF considering on-target passes from QB's whether they're completed or not), currently has Burrow as their #1 QB for the entire NFL. Tom Brady is their current #2.

even though the Chiefs lost. I don't much care but it was certainly an interesting game.
