3rd and 3 with the game (arguably the season) on the line and he didn’t trip the first time he was touched AND got the 1st down!
I kid I kid … a little anyway.
I’m pretty critical of Mixon with the dancing and tripping but he came thru and deserves some credit for going the extra mile (ok, just 3 yards) to remain upright to get the job done.

Looked intentional to me on one of the replays. Almost as if he noticed accidentally the opportunity and just quickly poked it as a reflex without thinking about it.

WHO DEY
Jokes aside, when I started to create the poll Mixon was definitely at the top of my list. It "seemed" he had a great game, but I looked at the box score and it was turrible.

You also have Burrow getting Chase hurt when Chase had his man beat by 5 yards and Burrow didnt have enough arm on that throw which should have been an easy TD and buried Buffalo. Tee gets my vote. Great game from Tee
That was not even close to the worst under throw from yesterday. Go watch the one from Tua at the end of the Dolphins/Chiefs game.
Anyway, like I said earlier in this thread, it sucked that Joe missed Chase on that deep ball, but Ja’Marr also dropped a pass in the end zone that should have absolutely been a TD. So it kind of evens out.

Ha. I did the same. lol. I assumed he was at at least north of 50-60 yards
Nope. 37. Lol

But he got 3 BIG ones. All good.
And I think that may be what this offense is at this point. The Joe Burrow show with a smattering of the running game. It’s worked so far, and to my mind it’s going to be something where we run it in situations where we have a clear advantage and really have to, and trust our line and Mixon to get it done for those few plays rather than leaning on them all game.

Yes, as long as he stays upright and shines when we need him!
I'll take the Mixon in the 49ers game who ran like Derrick Henry

They ain't paying him a 1/4 of a billion dollars to hand the ball off.

Quote:OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: QB JOE BURROW, CINCINNATI BENGALS
Burrow was dominant as the Bengals made a statement in their win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday Night Football. His four big-time throws were tied for the second most in the league this week, and he went the full game without a turnover-worthy play.

Honestly I’ve never looked into the price. I like to look at the grades, but not enough to pay for it myself.
I think Ochocinco’s (and maybe rfaulk?) has a subscription.
