Joe Mixon - THE PISTONS - 09-30-2022
Joe Mixon is averaging 0.5 yards after contact per attempt this year. That is HORRENDOUS. He has two broken tackles in 82 attempts.

The lowest YAC/attempt among RBs last year was Jamaal Williams with 1.4.

Stuff like this is what makes Zac Taylor so frustrating as a coach. I get hoping your guy is going to bust out of his slunp but Mixon getting 24 carries to Perine's 1 yesterday is a joke.
RE: Joe Mixon - George Cantstandya - 09-30-2022
The running game is certainly a huge problem. If the Bengals can't get it going it will be a huge issue.
RE: Joe Mixon - THE PISTONS - 09-30-2022
Could Mixon be hitting the wall?
RE: Joe Mixon - QueenCity - 09-30-2022
Garbage............ it's disappointing to see but RB do have a quicker shelf life. May be time.
RE: Joe Mixon - michaelsean - 09-30-2022
If they had someone like Chubb they would be a near lock to make it to the Super Bowl.
RE: Joe Mixon - J24 - 09-30-2022
I would like to see some Evans and Perine get some carries.
RE: Joe Mixon - BengalsLUFC - 09-30-2022
Only 4 games see where we are after 12 if it’s time or not.
I did say he seems to have lost a step, some holes have been there the past couple of games and he hasn’t done enough.
Would like to see some more of Evans to see if we don’t have to use a draft pick.

Every time he gets the ball

Starting to hear the Bijan Robinson to Cincinnati talk... and I can't say I hate the idea.
RE: Joe Mixon - Bengalitis - 09-30-2022
I wouldn't mind drafting a new RB next season and trading Mixon. Mixon is good but if averaging 0.5 yards after contact per attempt this year. That is HORRENDOUS. He has two broken tackles in 82 attempts,is true, then yes time to find our Rock. We already have Perine, we don't need 2.

He could be available. It's not a stretch to think that. A nice nugget about Robinson....he was 4th in creating tackles missed last year with 88. I would think he's the top RB.

That's why you never pay one like we did....
RE: Joe Mixon - bengalfan74 - 09-30-2022
Every game that goes by I get more of the feeling that he's on the downhill part of his career, already.
RE: Joe Mixon - NUGDUKWE - 09-30-2022
I still think Mixon can get it going. Perine had the 1 run that went no where. But I'm not saying he shouldn't get more touches. I will say Evans deserves some opportunities especially in the passing game. With the game plan to throw check downs and quick passes I'm a little perplexed why we're not getting him some targets on high percentage throws. I think he flashed enough last year to earn some targets.

Not sure how much responsibility it actually comes with, but Frank Pollack is Run Game Coordinator.

Can't imagine anyone is trading for Mixon.
He has a base salary of $9.4m next year which means someone would be taking on 1 year of the 8th highest paid RB in the league and he currently has a 2.7ypc.
RE: Joe Mixon - Synric - 09-30-2022
I know people will say Derrick Henry or Johnathan Taylor are the top running backs but Nick Chubb might be the best pure runner in the NFL... Even he is in a Running Back committee. Bengals need to rotate their running backs better.
RE: Joe Mixon - Frank Booth - 09-30-2022
pff says Mixon is averaging less than a yard before contact.
that's on the o-line. Frank Pollack isnt doing his job as o-line coach and run game coordinator

Todd Gurley was the same age Mixon is now (26) when he flamed out. I have always been a big Mixon fan, but the people that argued against paying a RB high end money on a 2nd contract were definitely right.
