the team winning despite Ja'Marr Chase and Joe Burrow having some issues. It used to be that if I told you Chase had 12 receiving yards and Burrow threw a pick-six, you would have been positive the team had lost.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Burrow threw pick-six but Bengals won; rare underperformance by star QB.

Threw a pick-six in the third quarter that made the game a one-score contest; the source emphasizes this is historically unprecedented when both Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase have been healthy, yet the Bengals still won 33-27, suggesting the defense and running game compensated for his turnover.
