Many of these Jeremy Hill conversations actually remind me of the Dalton conversations from the past. Some people just can't seem to admit that he is struggling... it has to be someone else's fault. The line doesn't block as well for him, they don't call the right plays, he isn't put in the right situations. It could be that he is simply struggling, or that he is not the second coming of Jim Brown.
I really don't get the argument that the offense should be changed to cater to him. I believe they are the second ranked offense? Dalton is having an MVP caliber year, the team is unbeaten. Why on earth would they change what they are doing? Yes, Hill is still going to get his carries. And yes, there are going to be times they need to run the ball more. Unfortunately for Hill, the other back has shown himself to be much more productive this year. Fortunately for Bengals' fans, it really doesn't matter who get the yards as long as someone does.
Awesome post OB.

I saw third quickest but he is definately near the top.
