RB's can get going whenever. The run doesn't have to be established - it either works or it doesn't. On average, the more carries Mixon received this year, the worse he performed for example. This is kind of missing the problem with the RB room, though, which is that there is no one except for maybe Chase Brown that can generate yardage on their own. Mixon/Williams/Evans??? are not capable of consistently making guys miss or breaking tackles to get that extra yardage. They get you what the line gives them. Cincinnati will need to upgrade that room at some point in order to see more improvement in the run game.
