Where is Gio?

That's not exactly begging for more carries. Love or hate Mixon, you have to admit he's proven every bit as capable a receiver as Gio, so that negates some of the need for Gio.

I'd like to see more Gio, personally...but if I'm being 100%, Gio isn't to help the run game. I can pretty much guarantee that. The problem is the line. We could hop in a time machine and grab a prime Barry Sanders. It wouldn't matter if he's running behind a messy glob of inept linemen. I'm not sure how many more RB's people need to see before they start realizing that RB isn't the problem.


Unfortunately, the team's method of avoiding big guaranteed money makes it so they can't be creative even if they wanted to be.

In return for accepting less guaranteed money, the team offers to keep players for the full length of their contracts...even when they vastly under perform their cap figure. Jim O confirmed that this is how they do things.

So instead of cutting or restructuring to make more room to improve the roster, we're stuck with guys like an aging Leon Hall at $9 million, or Gio...or Michael Johnson.

It hurts us in so many ways. The Bengals are the only team who runs things this way. Are we to believe the team with 0 playoff wins in 27 years is the team that is smarter than everyone else? 

Yes - We haven't won a single playoff game since modern free agency began.
