From the article

A loss to the Miami Dolphins, even if Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins don't play, would probably take them out of the top half of the league for most. Sunday's loss to the Jaguars showed the value of Ja'Marr Chase to Joe Burrow and the rest of the Bengals' offense. The offense is so much different if they aren't around.

Chase's absence significantly impacts Bengals' offensive efficiency and playoff positioning.

Chase's injury status is a critical factor in the Bengals' offensive performance and playoff viability. Multiple power rankings analysts note that a loss to Miami without Chase (and Tee Higgins) would likely drop Cincinnati out of the top half of the league; Nick Shook specifically highlighted that Sunday's loss to Jacksonville demonstrated Chase's value to Joe Burrow and the Bengals' offense, while Pete Prisco emphasized that the offense is fundamentally different without him.
