Just a day after Joe Burrow said “something’s got to change” for the Cincinnati Bengals to get back to contention, his favorite target, Ja’Marr Chase, voiced something similar.
When discussing what needs to change, Chase said, “Some of the things are pretty obvious. He then explained that it isn’t his role to decide what that is, but maintained that the problems are clear.
Most importantly, the receiver expressed great hope that the Bengals’ front office and coaches can get the job done, saying, “It’s 100 percent fixable.”
"I think some of the things are pretty obvious, what we need to change. It's pretty obvious on what issues need to be changed."

In the clip above, Chase also pointed to the fact that “it’s a team effort,” meaning there’s only so much that he and Burrow can do. And, as we’ve seen, the Bengals have managed to lose high-scoring games as much as any other team.
While those failures must be frustrating, both the QB and WR still sound extremely competitive and team-oriented. Their ability to look to the future and keep their spirits high is encouraging.
