Quarterback Joe Burrow connected with Chase throughout the game, exploiting Arizona’s secondary with precision passing and sharp route timing. Chase hauled in 10 receptions for 142 yards and two touchdowns, electrifying the home crowd and underscoring why he remains one of the league’s most dynamic offensive weapons.
Running back Joe Mixon added balance to the Bengals’ attack with 87 rushing yards and a score, while the defense forced three turnovers, including a key second-quarter interception that set up a touchdown drive. Cincinnati, now back in the AFC playoff picture, improved its record to 9–6 with two games remaining in the regular season.
For Arizona, rookie quarterback Clayton Tune struggled against the Bengals’ relentless pass rush, finishing with two interceptions and being sacked four times. A promising first-quarter touchdown drive quickly gave way to offensive inconsistency as Cincinnati’s defense tightened.
After the game, head coach Zac Taylor praised Chase’s consistency and competitiveness. “What Ja’Marr has done year after year is incredible,” Taylor said. “He’s a generational talent, but he also works like a guy trying to make the team every week.”
With their postseason hopes rejuvenated, the Bengals will travel to Kansas City next week for a high-stakes matchup that could determine playoff seeding. For now, however, the spotlight rightfully belongs to Ja’Marr Chase — a record-setter whose brilliance continues to define Cincinnati’s rise.
