Bengals use Mixon and Bernard together, but way too late

There's so many options you have with two backs on the field and with a running game that it defies logic to not use them. How it it took the team 29 games and the loss of AJ Green to finally figure it out is a mystery.

It boggles the mind at how unimaginative Marvin coaching staffs are. I guess Marvin is channeling Mike Brown's mentality of "change nothing ever and all will be comfortable."

I'm going to assume you weren't aware that yesterday was not the first time we've done it.

It was first done in week two against Baltimore, but couldn't happen again due to injuries keeping one or the other out until early November.

I can't say I saw a pony backfield against the Saints, second Ravens game, or Browns; but I definitely saw it utilized against the Broncos and Chargers.
