A 2 score game with over ten minutes left is far from garbage time.
Those first downs were important.
I think that the only reason it really stands out is because how non-existent the running game had been until that drive. But as others pointed out in the gameday thread, they didn't give Mixon the same run plays they gave Perine.
I wish my girl loved me the same way Zac Taylor loved Perine. If he becomes a better asset than Mixon, play him. But pounding the rock like that is the expectation and more common in most other teams. It's just that the Bengals have sucked so bad at it at late that it seems like a herculean feat.
