Re: Week 2 Discussion
Mixon back in, quit playing games with my heart
Re: Week 2 Discussion
Maybe its an early season mirage. However the Bengals are now 2-0 - still with Marvin Lewis as HC.
Here is the thread from the off-season that had some calling for his head.

Re: Week 2 Discussion
Yes, Buck Allen did get a 1 yard td as well last week. Goal line backs don't have to be in the Bettis mold. He's small and can find the hole for one yard. He had a couple of those last year too IIRC. Going to be a headache owning both Collins and Allen it seems.Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 6:31 pm lol did Troy Aikman just say Buck Allen was their short yardage and goalline guy?

Re: Week 2 Discussion
Re: Week 2 Discussion
IIRC, last week Gio had 1 carry and 1 target (for 1 reception). The rest of the RB workload was Mixon’s.Forza_Azzurri wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 7:12 pmI didn’t see last weeks game, but the Bengals usage of Mixon seem a lot like last year ... Gio’s usage is 50-50 run-pass. Mixon’s is more like 90-10. If they designed more pass plays for him, he’d be so much more effective. As good as he is as a receiver, it’s mind boggling that they don’t throw to him more.
The standard is the standard.

Re: Week 2 Discussion
I think I sold him a year too early...and by sold I mean dropped him to make room for my round 3 or 4 rookie pick. Hmm...not looking so smart at the moment.
And the worst thing is that I really like him as a player, but injuries soured me on him a bit. And then going to the Ravens was the nail in the coffin.
Seems like I was wrong on both counts...and my team is hurting for a WR3.

Re: Week 2 Discussion
Yes, Allen has been the 1A to Collins’ 1B in terms of goal line touches over the past year.Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 6:35 pmDid they do that week 1? Did they do that last year? did they do that for every short yardage attempt this game? One short yardage try does not make him their "short yardage and goalline guy".bjd5211 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 6:33 pmWell they just used him in short yardage on the goal-line....Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 6:31 pm lol did Troy Aikman just say Buck Allen was their short yardage and goalline guy?

Re: Week 2 Discussion
with starters playing so little in preseason it was impossible to know how to accurately judge guys coming off injury marred seasons. I don't think guys like Enunwa or Jordan Reed played a snap in the preseason.jman3134 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 10:52 pmReports this summer had him as number 1. Adp was way wrong this year.

Re: Week 2 Discussion
Odd how many times Mixon had to exit and re-enter the game...hopefully, nothing serious but he looked decent yesterday all things considered. Had 2-3, 7-10 yard runs negated due to penalties which would have put him over the century mark, kinda annoying.
