Chase recorded six receptions on nine targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-38 loss to the Steelers.
Chase hit on a huge 49-yard pass from Joe Burrow in the fourth quarter but was dragged down at the three-yard line. Burrow tried to go right back to him on the next play, but the pass was broken up, so it was close to being a much bigger day for Chase. Still, it's hard to argue with the production that he had even though Burrow spent a good chunk of the day attacking Joey Porter Jr., who was covering Tee Higgins. Chase remains a high-end WR1 and the likely WR1 overall next week against the Cowboys.
