It actually appears Zach often sent them to the line with a 1st down passing play that got killed into a run because of the defensive alignment...and it worked with Mixon running for 5.0 yards a carry.
My biggest gripe is the massive amount of empty sets. I don't mind empty sets but they are running them ALOT more than any other team in the NFL. The Bengals play action numbers are way down because of it and it limits targets to Joe Mixon as a receiver.
