The Cincinnati Bengals got wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase and quarterback Joe Burrow back as they beat the Baltimore Ravens 32-14.
Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase led the way for the Cincinnati Bengals Thursday night as they hung 32 points on the Baltimore Ravens in their victory. Burrow threw for over 250 yards and Chase cleared the century mark in receiving yards.
While Chase didn’t find the endzone he did have 110 receiving yards on seven receptions. Burrow threw two touchdown passes, one to Andrei Iosivas and another to Tanner Hudson, and running back Chase Brown matched Chase with seven catches.
The Bengals season is circling the drain but with Burrow back under center this offense is among the best in the league and their playmakers such as Chase and Brown, along with Tee Higgins when healthy, should be started in fantasy lineups with confidence.

The NFL is suspending Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver ...
Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase ...
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase caught six of...
Jalen Ramsey & Ja’Marr Chase got into it in Week 11. Chase spit, Ramsey hit.
After reviewing video from Week 11, Ja’Marr Chase took exception to jawing and a cheap shot from CB Jalen Ramsey. Chase visibly spit on Ramsey. Ramsey was subsequently ejected for unsportsmanlike conduct toward Chase.
Week 11 wasn’t a banner day for Chase anyway, as the Bengals top receiver caught 3 passes for 30 yards on 10 targets. Tee Higgins now becomes a Top-5 WR option in Week 12, as Higgins has finished Top-15 in three of his last four contests.
Chase will appeal the suspension, but overturning the ruling would be a surprise. Expect Chase to miss week 12.

Joe Burrow may be back sooner than later with surprise news of his 21-day practice window opening.
This is glorious news for fantasy managers and Bengals fans alike. Joe Burrow’s 21-day window to return to play has opened. Burrow suffered a Grade 3 turf toe injury at the beginning of the season.
With Joe Flacco at the helm, fantasy gamers have held steady, but Burrow returning is going to be well received. Flacco has been the bridge for Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins managers. Burrow has mentioned Thanksgiving as a time frame for return. Dynasty managers and IR spots are about to get plenty of relief with Joe Burrow returning.

Cincinnati Bengals wide recievers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins bounce back to life with newly acquired quarterback Joe Flacco
The Cincinnati Bengals season isn’t dead yet! After playing with backup quarterback Jake Browning, who replaced the injured Joe Burrow, the Bengals traded for recently benched Joe Flacco from the Cleveland Browns. Flacco was a clear upgrade from the horrendous play of Browning. We all got to see why Steelers’ head coach Mike Tomlin was angry at the Browns GM for trading Flacco to division rival Bengals. The offense has come back alive as Ja’Marr Chase recorded a franchise single game record 16 catches for 161 receiving yards and a touchdown. Receiver Tee Higgins had a big bounce back also with 6 catches for 96 yards and a touchdown against the Steelers. Flacco ultimately finished 31/ 47 with 342 passing yards and 3 TDs. The Bengals are hoping to stay in the playoff mix until Burrow hopefully returns in mid December.
Chase and Higgins owners can breathe a sigh of relief. Its amazing how competent play at quarterback can be a boon for fantasy production for the receiving options on a team. Higgins was a bench option and Chase was a prayer for a random big play with Browning at QB. Now both receivers are must starts each week with Flacco. Flacco understand who his receiver are and he will give them the chance to showcase their skills.

Ja’Marr Chase came up big for fantasy managers in Week 5.
Bengals star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase broke through in a big way Sunday afternoon. After 2 straight sub-10 point fantasy performances, Chase is the WR2 entering Monday Night Football. He came away with a 6-110-2 line on 10 targets. While Chase’s and by extension the Bengals offensive slump can be attributed to losing Joe Burrow and gaining Jake Browning, this was a sigh of relief for fantasy managers who had their first round pick in fantasy purgatory.
Chase gets a formidable Packers squad in Week 6 at Lambeau Field. The Packers will be a defense to start against the Bengals offense, but Chase should be started regardless. Expect more volatility forward as the week over week nirvana of the Bengals offense just isn’t the same without Joe Burrow.

The injury to Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow overshadowed star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase’s big day.
The Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2 with a final score of 31-27, but it came at a devastating price. Quarterback Joe Burrow suffered a turf-toe injury in the first half and was removed from the game. Images of the injury are being sent to noted foot specialist Dr. Robert Anderson for review. If surgery is required, Burrow is expected to be sidelined for around three months.
Before the injury occurred, Burrow and Chase connected for four catches, 37 yards and a touchdown. The star wide receiver was warming up, racking up ten more catches and 128 yards with backup quarterback Jake Browning. This was a much better outing than week one, where Chase only recorded two receptions and 26 total yards, not quite the result fantasy managers have become accustomed to over his five-year career. If Burrow is sidelined for the next three months, Browning or another quarterback will rely on Ja’Marr heavily if the Bengals want to keep their playoff hopes alive.
