fredtoast Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 How would you split 420 carries between the three? How would the Bengals coaching staff split the same number of carries? How many receptions will they combine for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 Me? 300 for Mixon, 80 for Gio, 40 for Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 I would give the ball to the hot hand. However, injures will help the coaches decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any reliable scout will admit he is the best back to come out since Petersen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go with whoever's hot at the moment & match-ups week to week. Try to make sure nobody gets too worn down early, particularly the rook.

Quote How many receptions will they combine for? No idea, but if Gio doesn't have as many as the other 2 combined it's because Zamkowski is in over his head.

He is, but he's also a rookie so I expect he'll need some time to get comfortable reading coverage & all that good stuff. No knock on him. If he's effectively become the #1 RB by the end of the season it wouldn't surprise me at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|Harley| Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 Nice depth to have with the specter of injury always looming. That said, very little reason for Hill to be on the field. Last season as a Bengal. Mixon 60%, Gio 35%, Hill 5%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleEarl Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 Looks to me like Gio is the third down back. I think he will get reps a few times a game on 1st and 2nd down as well. Hill will begin as the starter. I love Mixon, but I'm not very confident in him to take care of his blocking assignments. Once Mixon becomes reliable he will take over for Hill. Hill will be the short down back and sub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Alice Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 About the same for me. Mixon is the real deal. Any reliable scout will admit he is the best back to come out since Petersen.That's a little over the top.He is a really good one, though.This year, splitting carries, I expect about 850 yards out of him. In year 2,3, and 4, he's got a chance to be a 1,500 yard type guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
