Spoiler: It's the ball's fault!

quote:

The balls used in college football also have white stripes on either end, while NFL footballs have no stripes. Chase says that matters.


quote:

“The ball is different because it is bigger,” Chase said, via Bengals.com. “It doesn’t have the white stripes on the side so you can’t see the ball coming from the tip point so you actually have to look for the strings on the ball at the top, which is hard to see because whole ball is brown and you have the six strings that are white. But for the most part, just have to get used to it and find out what I am comfortable with catching.”


quote:

Of course, every single rookie has to make the exact same adjustment, and we haven’t heard any other rookies blame the footballs for dropped passes.

Just as delusional as that whole fanbase.


At least he’s not a quitter.

He made y'all quit in 2019, or maybe that was CEH.

Ja’Marr Chase didn’t play and still got drafted ahead of your most decorated player EVER

I would hope for his team’s sake that he’s comfortable with catching all of the balls that are within reach.

His girl has caught more hands than he’s given the bengals so far.

Convenient that you left out the part where he blames himself for not looking the ball in and running before the catch.

Hope Jerry Jeudy learned how to catch this off-season.

How old is this news?

He's been tearing it up since he had like 1-2 bad practices.

At this point I think he just needs to admit to himself it was a bad idea to take a year off. He’s having trouble getting going again and it’s all mental.

It's a tough call between which is greater. Gumps' obsession with Chase or with Stingley.

Excuses University

You'd think since he took a year off he would be training and practicing with an NFL ball

Looks like ProFootballTalk is referring to an article that the Bengals posted on their website on the evening of September 6th. So, I'd say it's pretty recent news!

Its not an infatuation, its what this board has devolved into. Tit for tat trolling.

Perhaps he should have been training with an NFL ball during his year off? Ya know, because it's so much harder to catch than a college ball.
