Can’t leave points off the board against SF, we might pay for that later

Hill would have had him stopped at the LOB but for bear hugged. Agreed we probably need to start leaving someone around as a spy if Hendrickson is going to take his huge arc every rush.

Purdy running simply means that receivers are being covered and the dline is causing pressure. 

We only have 11 players, Joe.  We dont have enough players to rush the passer, add a couple to spy the QB, play zone D and man to man on receivers.

It’s always windy in Santa Clara. I’m not worried about Evan McPherson.

Yeah lets avoid our usual move of going 3 straight incompletions here and giving them a chance to go into half leading

That’s what Taylor should tell them to do.

Absolutely!

This is the best mixon has run in years.

Joe running like a man possessed.

Mixon just took his soul!!!

TRUCK STICK

I would run it a bit more often.

[Whacked]

Mixon will be drug tested after this game … and should be

Jesus, this is your life, Tony Romo

Mixon not dancing behind the line this game, makes a difference

New Comedy Central series.

This is by far the best run blocking I’ve seen the Bengals do since 2015. Jonah Williams and Orlando Brown are particularly impressive today.

I think there being actual holes to run through is all thats happening.

Mixin has ran great all year. Just getting blocking today

[Joelist]

Best Mixon has looked this year. Now let's get points!

That’s because the line is opening huge holes.
