Ja’Marr Chase absolutely torched the Ravens in Week 5, turning 12 targets into 10 catches for 193 yards and two touchdowns.
Let’s break down how:
Motion: 13.8% motion rate, targeted on a season-high 62.5% of routes in motion
Against linebackers: Caught all three of his targets for 85 yards and a touchdown
Vs. single-high coverage: Targeted on 11 of 21 routes for 9 receptions, 184 yards, and two touchdowns
Out of the slot: Caught all three targets for 112 yards and a touchdown
After the catch: 95 yards after the catch, +65 over expected
Joe Burrow has historically struggled with Tee Higgins out, because teams can devote more resources to slowing Chase.
