Well the boys win their first game after a bye in quite some time and do so in dominate fashion. So we get to award our 6th Game Ball of the season.
So who ya got:
Joe Mixon: 123 rushing yards at over 4.0 YPC and 2 TDs
Trey Hopkins: Looks fully healed and was a force in the middle
Eli Apple: 3 tackles, shutdown coverage, and 1 game clinching INT
Sam Hubbard: 1 sack, 1 fumble recovery, 5 tackles
Evan McPherson: 4 FGs (3 50+ yards)

Without Evan McPhearson the Bengals would have been playing from behind in the 4th quarter.

I have to go with Mixon.. he just wears down defenses when he gets rolling..

I'm going Mixon, haven't voted for him in quite some time. He got off to a slow start but finished strong with some nice runs and a TD.

My knee-jerk was to click the Mixon box, but after thinking a moment, I went with "other". My other is Zac Taylor. Zac brought the team out of the bye, fresh off of back to back losses with one of them being a humiliating bugle to the in State rivals, to Vegas to take down another team struggling for it's own divisional life.
So many years the Bengals come out absolutely flat from the bye, but not this time. Kudos to Zac today, for having the entire team ready to play in a tough road game out West.
*disclaimer This in no way excuses Zac for any past blunders, it only gives credit to him for having the team ready to win, today.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

I thought Hubbard had 2 sacks, but I was streaming and it locked up a couple of times.

Props to Sir Kicks a Lot, but we wouldn't have even moved the ball today if not for Mixon.
Also, great team effort by the D.

CBS box score shows Hubbard with 1 and Hendrickson with 1.

Yep. Mclotsaleg was nails but i had to give it to Mixon for staying focused and running hard when he wasn't getting much help early.

They came out and it appeared to me they were slow, out of sync, and unsure. He did get them turned around and i didn't think it would happen.
So I agree

Mixon, with an honorable mention to McMoney.
