A frustrated Ja’marr Chase put Cincinnati Bengals on explosion after the team’s 28-3 loss to Denver Broncos Monday night.
Chase had five catches of eight goals in 23 yards. But Jake Browning-led offense failed to get started much during the night. Cincinnati had only nine first downs and was 2-for-11 on the third down. The Bengals did not try to convert a fourth down.

Star Wide receiver’s hard night coincided with a heated conversation with head coach Zac Taylor.
“The urite is there, man, it’s just you should have it,” he told journalists via ESPN. “At the end of the day we should have it. Today it didn’t look like we wanted it.”
Chase suggested he felt the team “just gave up.” He neglected the sideline conversation he had with Taylor.
The Bengals fought in the last two weeks since Joe Burrow went down with an injury. Chase had five catches in 50 yards in a 48-10 loss to Minnesota Vikings last week.

“I’m always frustrated if I lose,” Chase added. “But it’s part of the game, man. Sometimes the feelings take over. Sometimes it looks like what it shouldn’t. It happens.”
While Browning would not question his teammates’ efforts, he regretted the lack of explosive acting the team has created in the last two weeks.
“The last two weeks just feel like we never really had momentum, haven’t really been explosive,” Browning said. “You are fighting for a tough fight with an arm behind your back when you end up in longer situations-other and long, first and long, leading to third and long. Good offenses do not, so we have to clean up.”
