Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has played alongside Joe Burrow for years, but he still believes their best football together came during LSU's historic 2019 national championship season.

When asked Thursday if this was one of the better years he's seen Burrow play, Chase quickly responded, "No. No, of course not."

When asked which year was his best, Chase didn't hesitate.

"2019."

Chase said he and Burrow continue to improve each season, but the consistency they showed at LSU remains the standard.

"We haven't been close, no. Only because the consistency we've been playing with hasn't been there," Chase said.

"We got to do that every game. If we'd been playing like last game every game, then I would say yes."

Chase and Burrow helped lead LSU to a perfect 15-0 record and the 2019 national championship, producing one of the greatest offenses in college football history.

2019 was truly special. It was the pinnacle of LSU football. I know that hurts to hear, but there will never be another year as special as 2019. It's all lagniappe from here on.

It’s a little harder to replicate 2019 type perfection when you’re playing against pros.

2019 is the standard for all-time football greatness. Unlikely to ever be repeated!
