From the episode

Chase Brown is the easiest. Like we could go into depth about what he's done on a per touch basis and how this offense and if everybody's healthy, blah, blah, blah. The easiest comparison I'll make is I see James Cook better passer, which all it takes is the offense clicking and staying healthy. And to get what we get from James Cook, which we saw with the bills just two years ago and last year, because that's all it takes is this is somebody that's been hovering around low 200 carries and low touchdown efficiency, which might be his thing. He might never get to 12 touchdowns rushing and that's fine. Maybe he falls into the Matt Forte world. Oh, God, by the way, Matt Forte top five for multiple years because Chase Brown 60 receptions, potentially 70 receptions. So I'm looking for from Chase Brown is to hit like a 300 touch mark, which the Bengals continue to tell us they're going to use Chase Brown because they basically did nothing to this backfield this year.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Jake Seeley projects Chase Brown as a potential top-six running back in 2026, comparing him favorably to James Cook's breakout two years ago, with upside to reach 300+ touches and 60-70 receptions if the Bengals' offense stays healthy.
