In this story:

CINCINNATI — Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow led the NFL in passing yards (4,918) and passing touchdowns (43) this season.

Wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase was the sixth player in the Super Bowl era to win the Triple Crown. He led the NFL in receptions (127), receiving yards (1,708) and touchdowns (17).

Trey Hendrickson led the NFL with 17.5 sacks. He accounted for more than half of the Bengals' sacks (34 total) this season.

They're the first team in NFL history to finish with the passing yards leader, receiving yards leader and sack leader.

They also finished 9-8 and didn't make the playoffs.

At some point there will be another team that has a trio that leads the NFL in those categories. It's reasonable to expect that team to make the postseason.
