Yeah Bell is most likely better than Hill or Gio, but It's not about who has the best running back. It's about who has the best backfield. Plus Hill being our #1 will increase our yards even more.
I never said that I think he's going to have that many attempts. I see that bfine was quick to have no issue using Williams extremely low numbers due to injury though.
I don't think a homer like bfine would like if I used that same logic when his favorite Bengals' players get injured.

Also, I'm on board with having no problem with a little homerism. What's the harm in it?
Bell is still a better athlete and a better RB than almost anyone in the NFL, he just won't be compiling stats because he's a dumb dumb. For that reason, I'm glad Hill is on the team and not Bell. As a straight up who is better than who? Bell has the division on lockdown as of now, and probably the entire league as well. Homers can home about Hill and Bernard, but the throne isn't theirs quite yet.
Aaron Rodgers could be suspended for 16 straight games but that doesn't mean Johnny Manziel is a better QB because of it, does it?
