True that Eox.

And he had the same blocking as Hill and averaged just under 5 yards a carry while Hill averaged just under 2. And I'll grant you that Hill may be playing hurt. But his injury is an upper body injury not his legs.
If I'm the Bengals I'm giving Burkhead a lot of snaps the rest of the season.
Man, spot on. People like Fred can say fans only like him cause he is white (which is BS BTW) but
Burkhead has just outplayed Hill the last few weeks. I sure hope they stick with the hotter hand but
knowing these coaches, who frickin knows.
