The Cincinnati Bengals offense was blanked in the first half of Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens — and superstar wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase was not happy about it. Chase said he came into the locker room "screaming" at his teammates during the halftime break. The Bengals offense scored 35 unanswered points in the second half, securing a 35-13 final score at Baltimore's M&T Bank Stadium.
When asked if he would ever utilize Chase's emotional leadership style, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said he prefers to stay more "even keeled." “I try not to. That's I think as a quarterback, at least for me personally, I play worse football when my emotions are at a higher level, so I try to be even keeled through through the chaos. So, I've certainly done it before.
It's not what I want to do. I can get my level back down to homeostasis, but I prefer to just keep it there," Burrow said when speaking to reporters on Wednesday. Burrow was excellent in Sunday's win, completing 22 of his 30 pass attempts for 292 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions.
He connected with four different receivers in the end zone: Chase, Tee Higgins, Drew Sample and Mike Gesicki. The Bengals will face off against the Tennessee Titans in a Week 8 matchup this coming Sunday.
