  1. Seems like a valid post. Both are in timeshares right now. Hill has the better long term history, Jones has looked better in his brief sample this season. Why would he be trolling? At some point, you have to put away the preseason cheat sheets and observe how things are going in the actual games. I don't own Hill, so I'm not faced with the decision, but if I did, I'd have to be thinking long and hard about it.

    Just seems like a bold move over a one game sampling.


  2. No, no. Sorry for the lack of clarification. Poor choice of words. Just wondering if he should be in starting lineups or benched another week. I know it depends on options. Like I'm debating on starting him over Landry or possibly Ivory at flex.


  3. Bengals coach Marvin Lewis expressed confidence in Jeremy Hill following Sunday's benching for fumbling, saying the early-down back would be "fine."

    Lewis said fumbles can become a mental issue for backs with "weak" personalities, but that Hill "doesn't have a weak personality." Lewis also said neither Hill nor Gio Bernard "can predict how many carries they'll get in a certain game." Basically, Lewis is saying the status quo will be restored after Sunday's benching. Hill will keep hammering on early downs, and Bernard will change the pace. Hill remains an RB1, but perhaps more in the 10-12 range than 5-8. Bernard has a nice floor for a FLEX option.

  5. I'll wager he finishes in the top 12 in any format making him an RB1. yes I was hoping for higher than that when I took him 1.09 ahead of forte, Murray, McCoy, and cj.

    I say he finishes higher than all those guys. The only one he might not is Forte, but Cutler is out. Also, was he banged up yesterday?
