Bengals running backs were hit in the backfield 52% of the time last year. I haven't heard the figure for the 3 games so far this year but I would imagine it's not much better. You can't expect Mixon to run the ball effectively if the line doesnt do better than that.
I don't think it's a coincidence that both Mixon and Burrow have not started out great when the line has struggled. I just don't understand the fans that claim the problems on offense aren't because of the O-line. The problems are because of Mixon and Burrow. Really?
