Squintz82 45 Posted September 8, 2014 Bengals OC Hue Jackson said Monday that he specifically approached rookie Jeremy Hill following Sunday's Week 1 win and told Hill he "will be playing more going forward." The 55th pick in May's draft, Hill only played ten snaps against the Ravens while Giovani Bernard handled 57. Jackson promised that won't be the "standard split" of playing time in future games, but it was dictated at Baltimore because Jackson "didn't think Hill (was the) best fit for Sunday's game plan and situation." Beat writer Paul Dehner expects the Bengals to "run the ball more" moving forward, after playing pass-first shotgun offense in Sunday's victory. Dehner still anticipates Bernard getting "20 touches a game." So basically there will be games that They don't feel Hill will be suited for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JtmoneyJag 25 Posted September 8, 2014 I like the sounds of 20 touches per game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ffexpert 4 Posted September 8, 2014 i think the Bengals strategy will be pretty predictable. When playing teams with solid D lines/run defenses or playing from behind, they will rely on Gio more to get the ball in space and run off tackle. Against teams the Bengals think they can effectively power run against they will use a more even run distribution between Gio and Hill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimHauck 1,899 Posted September 14, 2014 liking 130 total yards and a TD for Gio at halftime Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kolp 9 Posted September 14, 2014 I am expecting Gerhart to outperform Gio by a landslide. You are much better served drafting a WR early and grabbing Toby later. This comment gets funnier every week. lol 2nd round looking like a steal so far, compared to what we've seen out of some of the other rbs in 2014. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HOKIEZ 34 Posted September 14, 2014 Gio is a monster on draft kings..hes been so cheap and gives samr production as a mccoy or forte Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Mueller 146 Posted September 14, 2014 He's looking like a high floor player with elite upside in nice match ups. Happy to have landed him on all all 3 redrafts and a recent startup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flgatorguy87 160 Posted September 15, 2014 Think I might be starting both Gio and Hill next week... same here. Focking Toby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herbivore 920 Posted September 15, 2014 AYFKM?? Gio/Keenan over Reggie/Julio? lolz my fockin arse off 4 players had 1,000 yds rushing and 500 yds receiving last year: Charles Shady Forte aaaand wait for it ... REGGIE BUSH. and that was in a roughly 55/45 split with Joique. ya follow? the other 3 are all bellcow backs that will cost a top 5 overall pick in most drafts. Reggie's adp is mid/late 3rd. so yeah, lemme grab all that value later on with Bush paired with Julio. Still early but this one makes me lolz my fockin arse off.

Bgal85 2 Posted September 15, 2014 Gio is a monster on draft kings..hes been so cheap and gives samr production as a mccoy or forte He looked like he was going to fall over from exhaustion during the game. Gio is a stud and instead of being worried, owners should be happy they are getting Hill involved to keep Gio fresh/injury free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SexyRexy 60 Posted September 15, 2014 im worried he might be so good that my fantasy league won't be able to register the points fast enough. so yes, I'm concerned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
