This isn't the old NFL, it seems like now the passing game opens up the running game.  I would think that if we had anohter legit threat at WR that teams would have a very hard time defending us even with our porous offensive line.

Give the WR's a break. After AJ last year you had a guy first year in the system and 3 rookies. If god forbid AJ went down again this year, I'd expect the passing game to be better this year than last, under this scenario.

Rumors are starting that Cleveland is shopping the first pick, I think it would be great if the Bengals could package picks and McCarron for Myles Garrett.
