This is the 2nd consecutive week where both of them have earned at least 10 points.

What are everyone's thoughts on putting them in the lineup together?

I did that last year with Mathews and Woodhead. Your're guaranteed at least 10 points from one of them. I think you can expect 15 points from Gio or Hill. The other could have a good game or may get 1 point. I think in this case it's a great idea. Both have been tearing it up.

Might be the best RB duo in the league.

Can't forgot about Philly or Kansas City even though Knile is almost solely a backup.

Philly
Kinda forgot about them, I'd say Philly/Cincy and 1a and 1b with best backfield duo.

I wouldn't classify KC in there since like you said, Davis doesn't play unless JC is out

I agree with the KC point. It is just that Knile looks like a feature back as well.

Hill only got his today because it was garbage time. I started him since Foster was out but I wouldn't advise it if given strong alternatives.

As for playing both, makes sense. I did it with McCoy and Sproles today and got 5 points combined, Cousins and Garcon saved my arse.

Yea, Fantasy wise.

Jeremy Hill is actually a good RB.

Bernard is not. But he gets points in fantasy.

You don't think he's a good back IRL?

Yet they still keep giving Gio double the touches than Hill

Gio has the support and trust of every Bengal personnel in that organization.

It's going to take a lot for Hill to surpass that.

It's too early in the season to say that, considering Hill is a rookie.

Hes not totally going to supplant him. But Hill is the better runner and its obvious.

Did you watch the games, or just check out the box score? Sounds more like box score analysis.

Well, I strongly disagree. To clarify: About the supplant part. That ain't happening in 2014.

He's not good running the football. There really isn't a debate there

The bengals kept feeding BJGE even when he sucked. They don't care as long as they are winning.
