Ja’Marr Chase had 29 receptions for 284 yards and no touchdowns entering the game on Sunday. But the Bengals receiver has already recorded five catches for 53 yards and a touchdown in just two drives against the Cardinals.

Joe Burrow’s 2-yard toss to him marked the start of his season’s first score.

After their second possession, the Bengals are up 10-0 despite failing to score a touchdown from the Arizona 7. After Kevin Strong sacked Burrow on third down, they chose to settle for a field goal from 40 yards by Evan McPherson. Their largest advantage of the year is now 10 points. Burrow is performing admirably so far, going 11 of 12 for 95 yards.
