Ja'Marr Chase
The Cincinnati Bengals take on the Los Angeles Rams in the Superbowl 56 on Sunday 13th February. There will be some quality players on display during the high-intensity match between the two teams.
One of the standout players during the playoff game will be Ja’Marr Chase of the Cincinnati Bengals. While much of the talk has been regarding Joe Burrow, wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase is definitely one to watch out for as well.
Cris Collinsworth heaps praise on Ja’Marr Chase ahead of the Superbowl
Ja’Marr Chase has been absolutely sensational for the Cincinnati Bengals this season. Chase has managed to total 1429 yards received by a rookie before the merger this season and is number one on the list ahead of Justin Jefferson who stands at 1400 yards.
Moreover, Ja’Marr Chase has received huge praise from a man who knows a thing about two playing for the Bengals. Cris Collinsworth who played as a wide receiver for the Bengals during his career with outstanding numbers ( 417 catches, 36 touchdowns and 6698 yards) has acknowledged the importance of Chase to this Bengals team.
Speaking on NBC Sports’ Super Bowl LVI conference call on Monday, Cris Collinsworth saidJa’Marr Chase is already the best receiver he has seen playing for the Cincinnati Bengals. Collinsworth says he holds Isaac Curtis Chad Ochocinco high in his list but Chase is just in a different league of his own.
“Yeah, Penei Sewell is a really good player, but he’s not been what Ja’Marr Chase has been this year. Ja’Marr Chase, in my estimation, is already the best receiver that I’ve ever seen play with a Cincinnati Bengals uniform on, and I don’t say that lightly,” Collinsworth said.
“Isaac Curtis is a dear friend of mine, and Chad Ochocinco was phenomenal during his run here. But the number of times I’ve seen Ja’Marr Chase catch the football, 5 or 10 yards down the field, and score a touchdown without anybody tackling him obviously, first of all, but usually nobody touching him, his catch-and-run skills have just been so much fun to watch this season.
“I had a chance – the bizarre part about this game is I think for all of us to be doing a team in the Super Bowl that we did not do on ‘Sunday Night Football.’ The odds of that are not very good at all, so I literally went back and watched all the throws, all the catches, all the plays. This group of receivers is really phenomenal, and they are a balanced bunch, with Chase obviously being the explosive guy.”
