Not everybody cares about policing what they say in the media. Some players just like to talk and say whatever’s on their mind. If that ends up motivating their opponents, so be it. Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase is very much of that mindset. He already had to lament their losing to “some elves” earlier this year.
With the Bengals’ season hanging in the balance, however, he expressed confidence in their chances of making the playoffs even as they sit at 5-5. He told reporters yesterday that they’ll show the doubters what kind of team they are, even after losing QB Joe Burrow, and insisted that critics “Wait for the show” against the Steelers on Sunday.
