RB's making that kind of Jack have to produce big time or they're only hurting the team. RB's can be had for cheap with much fresher legs and certainly they couldn't block any worse than him.
You can get by in college with a RB that can't block and maybe in the NFL if you're a predominantly run orientated team. Yet the Bengals are mostly a passing team and that's not changing as long as Burrow and those 3 WR's are around and need a RB who can run when asked, but be able to pick up the blitz mostly to buy extra time.
Cut Mixon and buy an OL with that money would be my solution and then go draft a new partner for Perine, believe this may get the Bengals over the hump.
Your solution is the solution Go Cards, well said.

Sooo many unanswered questions now..
Holy CRAP! ZAC ALSO WORKS FOR Grizzly Tools... There's a conspiracy afoot.. There may be a remote possibility there's more than one Zac! The Bengals have cloned Zac and pimped him out to pay for Joes contract extension! These are dark days my friends when nobody knows what evil lurks in the hearts of NFL billionaire ownership..
Classic Gramps rant lmao!!!

If he's still got something left in the tank, I would love to have him back as 3rd down back as change up to a bruiser in Perine. Accomplished backfield blocker and receiver. Knows us and has always been a fan favorite.
I would at least kick his tires.
Love Gio, not against it. Pass protecting RB's are what we need. Mixon doesn't fit that bill.
