I wouldn't be too caught up in broad stats like that without delving deeper into the box score and stat sheets.
Also, having 63 yards for both RBs is good. Hill was running well despite the misleading YPC. I'm sure he'll be just fine. He doesn't need to rush for 150 yards every game to do what we need him to do, especially if Gio is a legitimate threat rushing as well.
This.
Total Marvinball in the 2nd half.
If they wanted to they could have made it REAL ugly.
A different coach and I think the Bengals could have easily put a 50-burger on em had they not went into Marvinmode.
