I also think Sample is a better receiver than people give him credit for. If I had my way I'd let Sample get some short targets/screens and have Uzomah be more in the short to intermediate range. I also think we need to get Mixon some targets as well as Chris Evans.

Problem is, defenses are sitting on the short stuff.  They have to take shots deep to take them out of that.

It's pretty apparent through 2 games that the Bengals offense rolls when they are getting the ball to Chase and flailing when they aren't.  Game 1, they do absolutely nothing most of the 1st half until they hit Chase a couple of times to get their first TD drive going and then the bomb to close the half.  They do nothing all game long against the Bears, then they hit the deep ball to Chase and they nearly come back to win.  The only guy I want to see getting game planned to get the ball more is Ja'Marr Chase.  Get Chase going, and everything else opens up.
