One series they use Montgomery, next series Gibbs, nest series Montgomery, next series Gibbs. Always the fresh legs in the game. This wears down Defenses. Both Montgomery and Gibbs put up around 1,000 yards rushing each as Ickey Woods the big back and James Brooks the smaller quicker back.
So imagine having Chase Brown with a bigger Montgomery type, and running Detroit rotation system. Suddenly Bengals have a Detroit running game and The O Line looks better. Going more to a running game cuts down on passes to Chase and others, but the passing game gets better. The passing game gets better because Burrow doesn't get hit on every play, because the Defense is forced to cover the run more, and that opens up Chase and receives.
The 1960's dynasty Packers could run and pass. So could 1970's dynasty Steelers. So could 1980's dynasty 49ers. So could 1990's dynasty Cowboys. So could Patriots in the 2000's dynasty they had. It's why teams like Detroit, Philly and Baltimore are going to tough in this years play-offs.
So I agree Chase Brown is pretty good. However I would love for Chase Brown to be our Gibbs, and we come up with a Montgomery and steal what is winning for Detroit. You still have Burrow throwing half of the plays in a game, but now the Defense can't load up and hit Burrow every play because they have to respect and cover the run.
I do agree, Chase Brown is a key part to this team getting back to the Super Bowl soon with Joe Burrow. More like the 1988 Bengals or the 2024 Detroit Lions though, as Bengals run game is a beast, and that lets Burrow be even more awesome when Bengals pass.
I know we got the RB from Indy who is injured, but is he a Montgomery type to go with Chase Brown as a Gibbs type. We could use a bull moose like Montgomery also. Detroit offense is very good, and the NFL is a copy cat league. Bengals have a Gibbs, they need a Montgomery, and Super Bowl here we come with Joe Burrow for passing.
As Always....GO BENGALS.
I assumed that was what they were going to do when they brought in Herbert to replace the injured Moss. One fumble and they seem to have forgotten the picked him up.
