Joe Mixon, who crossed 1,000 yards for the season and moved into second place all time in Bengals history for rushing touchdowns with his 50th.

This one is fairly easy - Joe Mixon.
Tip of that cap to Yoshi but his dropped balls were concerning. He's going to be a solid piece for us if he gets that fixed.

I’m going with Browning. Mixon had a good day but he had some huge holes to run through (for once) and Brown probably would have scored on the 40+ yard run Mixon had.
Browning had some bad throws but he also had some nice improvised throws that should have been sacks/incompletions - plus the shots they showed of his wife/girlfriend gets him the game ball today :)

He didn't have a single drop: balls were knocked out.
He's gotta work on holding onto it, but they weren't drops.

To be fair coming out of Princeton one of Yoshi's biggest questions was maintaining catches through contact.
Which is one of the the reasons the Bengals will miss Tee Higgins
Edit: The TD is a non issue but that sideline PD is meh.

Drops or knocked out the ball fell to the ground.
Eye test today it seemed they were all catchable and should of been caught or completed to the ground.

Myles showed that he belongs, he improved throughout the season. Constantly crapping on a rookie is amateur at best. I hope he takes a big step next season.

I absolutely don't disagree.
But a drop is dropping a pass when there is no interference from a defender
Both of those, he lost the ball after being contacted.

The coaching staff ultimately thought a hurt Sam Hubbard that needed surgery was a better starter than a healthy Murphy.

I have no idea why Sam played the last 3 games.
But the way you shit on players is annoying as fck.

I'm giving it to Mixon since this was potentially his last game for us.
