Khalil needs to bring protection for Burrow when opponents blitz. Everything else will be gravy.
Hopefully a lot lol just picked him up in fantasy
How many FUMBLES DOES HE HAVE?
What was his situation with the Bears? He went from starting to utility role. Is the guy ready to carry the rock ? Why not get a true fullback. Pete Johnson says he's still ready to roll . Who Dey
How is his pass rush, cause thats what we need
Lets put Cody Ford at rb for passing downs
How about not much!!!!!!
Chase Brown better keep getting 20 plus touches, that's the most important thing
Kendall Milton as a passblocker?
Besides the short yardage run. Khalil Herbert is pretty similar to Chase Brown. I think he's a good addition but as far as a great complement to Brown I'm not sure that he is.
get kendall milton in the rotation as well
The Bengals' offense has ALWAYS been most successful with a bell cow primary back. Dillon, Rudi, Hill, Mixon. Whenever they've tried running back by committee its been a S show. Brown is a game changer, needs to get 80% of the carries.

Watched flim on khalil things go right. This is going to be a good one two punch. Gotta wait and see how he gels with them. Whodey lets go win thrusday
Who dey 🧡🖤🏈🤫💪
What about Hubbard as protection? I saw a few plays they utilized Sam for the offense. I wonder if maybe he'll play an offensive role this game
Put Cody ford at full back for short downs like we used to use peko have Herbert right behind him would be fun to watch
2 RB set. Herbert picks up the blitz while Brown runs light speed into next year!
Defense is the problem!!!!!!!!!!!!! I understand the Zack Moss injury
Solid trade. Wheres the cb and de trades
