'There's Not Much I Would Want to Change' - Ja'Marr Chase on Bengals' Offense and Poor Record
CINCINNATI — The Bengals might be 4-8, but that isn't stopping Ja'Marr Chase and other leaders on the team from staying motivated for the final five games of the season.
The Bengals play the Cowboys on Monday night. They would need to win out and get some serious help to make the playoffs. It sounds like they've accepted that the postseason isn't in the cards this season—especially after three-straight losses.
"It just feels like a regular day at work," Chase said. "It just feels like a regular day, you just know your outcome. It still feels like a regular day, you just know the outcome that's going on."
A "regular day" means Chase is doing everything he would normally do, say if the Bengals were 8-4 and pushing for a playoff spot. The entire locker room felt that way this week.
They know they aren't going to the playoffs, but they still plan to play hard down the stretch.
The Bengals are averaging 27.9 points-per-game this season, which is fifth-best in the NFL.
What needs to change moving forward?
"It's not much I would want to change [on the] offensive side," Chase said. "Honestly I wouldn't change a thing from an offense perspective. The only thing I'd change probably is just finishing better."
The Bengals are 1-7 in one score games. Their struggles late in games and inability to close games is a big reason why they're going to miss the postseason for a second-straight year.
