The running game going into the next round.

[George Cantstandya]

It's no secret that the passing game is awesome. But it seems the running game has been a bit flat. Excluding game 17 against the Browns when the second team was in, the last 5 games the Bengals averaged 86.4 yards rushing a game. Against Chargers 96 yards 3.8 average, 49rs 86 yards 3.3 yards average, Broncos 113 yards 4.3 yards average, Ravens 77 yards 3.7 average, and Chiefs 60 yards 3.2 average.

Yesterday against the Raiders 83 yards rushing with Mixon gaining 48 of them.

I don't know but I'd like to see more from the run game. Of course the air game is hard to defend given the top notch receiving team but IMO as the Bengals progress through the playoffs the running game needs to improve.

P.S. I may or may not still be celebrating the playoff win and thus not thinking straight. :)
