Yep.
Nothing new to a Bengal fan. We have all seen it many times.
IF mixon wants to win anything, he will have to do it with another organization!
Honestly don’t care one way or another. They’ll go 4-12 this year with him, they’ll go 4-12 next year without him. Big meh all the way around.
Maybe it was a "see ya" to all of the fans who are saying they are done with this team?

Also, there's no way the Bengals are going to pay a RB $8+ mill a year anyway, so Mixon could be as good as gone regardless.
Their priority will always be QB, WR, OT, CB, and DL as long as Mike Brown is around.
I absolutely agree. The modern NFL has changed from what it used to be.
While QB, WR, OT, CB, and DL are important positions, the most important
overall aspect is "team speed".
If the OL is slow, they won't be able to pull, set screens, etc. If they have great first-step speed, they can take the game to the DL and LBers.
If the DL is faster than the OL, they can disrupt any play. If the LBers are fast, they should be able to cover better, get to the edge faster, etc.
OMG OMG OMG! Mixon posted a peace sign! Whatever could this mean? Peace maybe? Sooooo cryptic.

Yep. I remember back when Palmer demanded a trade and everyone was losing their minds. It was a monumental meltdown, everyone agreed it was the lowest point in Bengal franchise history.
But we had seen it before many times under Mike Brown. I knew at the time Palmer wasn’t the first, and he sure as hell wouldn’t be the last. And here we go again... maybe

You both may be correct, but I'm taking it to mean "Peace out"....
Notice Seattle adjusted and stopped the run after that 1st drive. THAT'S what an adjustment looks like!
LOL @ Bengals.com for blaming Mixon for the 4th and 1 failed sneak. The line got bad and about 4 lineman were in the backfield...but:
'Then on fourth-and-one from the Bengals 42, the crowd wholeheartedly agreed with head coach Zac Taylor to go for it. But working out of the shot gun, Dalton faked to Mixon and Mixon couldn't get in front of linebacker Haason Reddick for a lead block. That led to Dalton getting stopped short of the marker with 1:37 left in the third quarter.'
I’d trade Joe asap. He’s a luxury we don’t need and as much as I like him, he’d bring the best return.
Think Philly. They need him and he’d slay.

Who the hell calls a QB sneak out of the shotgun on 4th and a foot ? Did ZT think he had Cam Newton ?
