You were 24/27 on FGs. Bengals are 21/29. I don't know how many game winning and ending FGs you missed (if any) but the Bengals have missed 2, 1 resulted in a loss, 1 didn't.
Burrow is doing almost as much as Pat, numbers-wise, but he doesn't have the support around him that Pat did.

Most of the alleged advantages the 2018 Chiefs had was because of Mahomes. If you don't believe me, watch some Alex Smith era Chiefs games. Conversely, some of Cincy's weaknesses are a direct result of Burrow's contract.
Again, this is comparing first-year Mahomes to peak Burrow, who will never be better than he is right now.
