#1 MIN- Adrian Peterson, Matt Asiata Peterson + anybody is #1
#2 ARZ- David Johnson, Chris Johnson
#3 DAL- Alfred Morris, Ezekiel Elliott
#4 LAR- Todd Gurley, Tre mason
#5 NEP- LaGarette Blount, James White
#6 HOU- Lamar Miller, Alfred Blue
#7 Hill, Bernard
I left Leveon Bell, DeAngelo Williams below Hill and Bernard because Bell is oft injured.
RE: Rank our RBS - J24 - 05-18-2016
We have two backs in Gio and Hill that can take over games respectively. Not sure how many teams can say that. They also play well off each other.

This sounds about right. I also think that Gio is about at the top of his game. Any significant improvement from this duo is going to have to come from Jeremy Hill.
RE: Rank our RBS - TecmoBengals - 05-19-2016
I'd take Hill/Bernard over the Patriots or Texans. I'd say top 5.

Alll better than us.
RE: Rank our RBS - Goalpost - 05-19-2016
Gio is a good all purpose back. Hill tied for the league lead in rushing TDs.
Overall though i only rank them slightly better than average. Bengals were 13th in yards rushing and averaged only 3.9 yards per carry.

I got the Bengals at #7 (and I went back and forth putting the Packers and Rams ahead of them).
RE: Rank our RBS - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 05-19-2016
Top 10 right now.
Potential wise could be the best but Hill needs to stop the fumbling and get back to what we saw his rookie year.
RE: Rank our RBS - Shake n Blake - 05-19-2016
I have our duo at #11.
Now if Hill can regain his 2014 form, they'd probably be top 5.
RE: Rank our RBs - bfine32 - 05-20-2016
I give them top 10. The crazy thing is last year we were debating where they fit in the top 3. I will say 2 things struck me as I researched this:
1. Beast Mode is going to get to pick his spot
2. We need to get some work out of #3
RE: Rank our RBs - The Burfict Answer - 05-20-2016
Depends if we get the hill from last year or hill his rookie season, didn't someone post that he had a nagging injury most of the season last year?
I think that costing cinci their 1st playoff game in 20+ years is going to carry a chip on his shoulder to be someone we can rely on to win games..
Think he has a top 8 season
RE: Rank our RBs - bengalfan74 - 05-20-2016
I'd put them around 10th. They could easily be top 5, question is will they ?
RE: Rank our RBs - 'E' - 05-21-2016
I think back end of the top ten right now. If Hill returns to form top 5 isn't out of the question.
RE: Rank our RBs - grampahol - 05-22-2016
Just to be the homer I gave them number 1, not that I believe it, but it is possible.
Elliott with Dallas hasn't proven anything yet in the NFL.

if Hill returns to old form i agree top 5 is a lock. maybe top 3
RE: Rank our RBs - Itsmebobd - 05-22-2016
I say we are 2-5, only because I believe we are #5. Both our RB's (gio and Hill) are starting RB's on MOST nfl teams, we have that thunder and lightening combo most teams lack. Burkhead is a nice 3rd down RB and rotational guy, icing on the cake if u ask me. He sure was better than boom herron and im glad we kept him over him. I know im being a BIT of a homer calling us #5, but maybe we're top 10 at worst. I think a REAL FB could turn us back into a power running team, who can do Play Action fakes that make other teams cringe. Lets not forget that boyd is the type who can run out of the backfield, and he can also sling it downfield a la sanu.
RE: Rank our RBs - CINwillWIN - 05-22-2016
All potential.
I'm hoping for at least a top 10 finish with them this next season...
RE: Rank our RBs - Brownshoe - 05-23-2016
Considering Hill did pretty bad last year I have them at 11th. If he played like his rookie year I would have them a lot higher.
RE: Rank our RBs - Nately120 - 05-23-2016
Oy, was that only a year ago when people on this board were amazed anyone would rank our RB's as anything lower than top 5? Welp, here's hoping this year is an upswing.
