2016:         Cincinnati  110.6 yards a game 13th in the NFL

So we were excellent in 2014 and above average in 2015 and 2016 according to how much stock you put into rush yards a game.
These stats seem misleading because of the eye test last year , I figured we would be worse.

It was worse than that on an efficiency basis is why. Rex Burkhead in limited touches had an awesome 41.9% DVOA while Hill had a -4.9% and Gio had a -2.0% DVOA (Gio also on less touches). So besides Rex we were just bad with our RBs

We ranked 19th in power running success, and 26th and 23rd regarding 2nd level yards and open field yards (Mostly Hill and OL inability to reach 2nd level)
