Happy to hear that. That was such a joyous moment.
Joe Mixon is now averaging 4.14ypc on the season (he was 4.02ypc last year) and 3.37ypc over his last 7 games.

King Henry couldn't Madden run his way out of that safety.

I definitely agree. Seeing a minute and change "drive" when we are nursing a lead in the fourth that goes - incomplete pass, 2 yard pass, sack, punt is not good at all.
Saw an interesting QB stat line that kind of shows the importance of having an offensive line built for the running game. It also shows two different eras.
61.7% completion percentage - 7 TDs 12 INTs - 7.9 yards per attempt - 10.9% sack percentage - 78.7 rating
61.5% completion percentage - 7 TDs - 4 INTs - 6.1 yards per attempt - 6.3% sack percentage - 82.5 rating
Line one is Turk Schonert - 5-2 starting record
Line two is Brandon Allen - 1-5 starting record
Here's another one . . .
Boomer Esiason has played for three winning teams 1986, 1988 and 1990. Those teams were #1, #2 or #3 in total rushing yards. When Boomer didn't have a dominant running game, he was a losing QB outside of a 4-1 stretch at the end of his 14th and final season. 80-93 as a starter for his career.
Get an O-line built for the running game.
Get Chase Brown a partner.
Get a new Head Coach.
Hoping his ankle injury is temporary.

Hope Chase is good to go. Mims as well. McPherson, too.
Hope Herbert did enough to earn some PT next week.
Not a fan of tight rope surgery. Seems like those guys deal with ankles injuries more often.
10 yards short of 1K. What a ***** bummer.
IF CB doesn't play the final game of the season due to ankle injury, he will finish the regular season at 1350 yards from scrimmage and 11 TDs on 283 touches.
Pretty solid for a guy who started the year with limited touches as RB2.
Good Chase Brown news. Hopefully it was one of those horrible pain when it happened but heal fast kind of things. Ah, to be young.
To compare CB's production this year with other Bengal RBs of the past decade:
CB - 283 touches, 1350 yards, 11 TDs (4.8 YPT)
Mixon's best season with CIN - 334 touches, 1519 yards, 16 TDs (4.5 YPT)
Hill's best season with CIN - 249 touches, 1339 yards, 9 TDs (5.4 YPT)
Bernard's best season with CIN - 226 touches, 1209 yards, 8 TDs (5.3 YPT)
So CB has been the 2nd most productive RB in Cincy in the past decade.
All these dudes were 2nd round picks too aside from CB.
And Mixon did not reach his peak performance until his 5th season, although he did have 1464 yards and 9 TDs on 280 touches in his 2nd year.
Hill and Bernard's most productive seasons were their rookie years.

Turns out if you get almost all the RB touches you have more yards, and if you have to split workloads you have less yards. Even if you're much less productive on a per-touch basis.
Hill had a nearly 50-50 split with Bernard (249 vs 211)
Bernard had a nearly 50-50 split with BJGE (226 to 224)
Brown has nearly a 75-25 split with Moss (283 to 97)
- - - - - -
That's a bit like saying Cedric Benson was more productive in 2010 (349 touches to Scott's 72) than Bernard was in 2013.
Sure Benson had 80 more scrimmage yards, but he also had 123 more touches.
Same with guys like Jerome Bettis who were just volume merchants on a mediocre offense held up by a great defense. 368 touches at 3.9 yards per touch in 2000 is still enough to put him ahead of Chase Brown with 1,438 yards from scrimmage.. but it took him 100 more touches to get there.

I'm still ready to give him a healthy workload next year, but we need another RB to pair with him that'll get a pretty substantial amount of touches (and to clean out the entire rest of the RB room).

I see Jeanty from Boise State mocked to us. I'd be shocked if we went RB.
