Also, as Nately said, a lot of those "when RB rushes this many times" stats are because if you're getting your ass kicked early, the RB won't touch the ball much because you have to throw to catch up. If you're already winning big, the Bengals love to shut down into a run-run-pass-punt or run-run-run-punt offense, so the RB will get a ton of touches.

Just look at the Bengals versus the Browns. Their RBs didn't run the ball 26 times because they were having success. Heck, they only averaged 2.2 YPC on those 26 carries. They ran it 26 times because they were up 21-0 at half and decided to pretty much shut down their offense and run out the clock the rest of the game.

There was a stat somewhere, buried in the archives, that stated something along the lines of when the Bengals rush 30 times a game, the win % was way up there.
