This Sunday it will be 24 days since a Bengals win.....2 losses and some strange scheduling has them stuck on 8 wins.....Just as you wouldn't want to play the Patriots or other good teams after a loss, The Bengals are about ready to explode and take a team out behind the woodshed. ....Bring on 9-2.

| Maybe we should give McCarron a chance. |

We have lost two in a row. Pittsburgh is 6-4 and only 2 games behind us. If we don't do something we are going to miss the playoffs.
Is it time to let McCarron play. He could be great. We will never know until we give him a chance.
We know what we have with Dalton, and it doesn't look like he is going to be able to get us over the hump. He did a lot for this franchise, but we need something more.
Too bad Marvin is like so many other people here and is satisfied with just making the playoffs. Some of us want more.

Gil Brandt just posted these numbers:
Quote:RBs w/ lowest stuff %
Rawls 10%
Bernard 11%
Blount 12%
Lat.Murray 15%
Stewart 17%
Ingram 17%
Bell 17%
J.Hill 17%
Jennings 17%
Both Bengals RBs are among the league's lowest "stuff" %
Meaning they aren't exactly getting lit up at the LOS and they are having chances to do damage on the ground.
This lends itself to the problem of Hill not seeing the holes well and doing what he has done in the past to turn the 4-5 yarders into big runs. He isn't running with conviction. He's hesitant. Whereas Gio is hitting the hole fast and making his move to get into space. He's seeing things better than Hill.
The other big issue is Ryan Hewitt. Hewitt isn't blocking as well as he was last year and quite frankly, with the offense working better out of the 11 personnel than any other formation this year Hewitt just isn't getting the reps either. Does that really have a big factor in it? It does when you notice how much more Hill likes to follow the FB and run good old fashioned power football. He thrives on it.
Right now, Gio fits the offense better. He offers more as a receiver and as a lone back. But they seem to be very cautious about putting too much on him and having him wear down come December and January.
What this ends up meaning is come the playoffs, I wouldn't be surprised if we have a second gear to hit when it comes to the run game people seem worried about.
