this is where I get annoyed with rotoworld...Here's the headline

quote:

Joe Mixon not expected to see more snaps

but its...

quote:


The Cincinnati Enquirer does not expect
Joe Mixon to have a bigger role Thursday night against the Texans.


That's not news, that's some beat writer's opinion.

Im riding Mix tonight in a flex

Dalton's game last week destroyed the entire offense... I look for a bounce back

15 for 60 and a TD

That OL destroyed dalton who destroyed the O.. HOU may get after him

Though Vegas is implying 21 points from Cinci, someone should hit pay dirt. Could be some FGs. Going to be an ugly game I think

In my work league at a new job. Some idiot dropped Mixon and I happened to miss ww this week, so boom. I drop fat rob and get Mixon on Saturday.

In my other league, I'm debating dropping Zay for Kendall Wright 1 pt PPR

What was your thinking behind dropping a starting running back for a 3rd string back? Future stash?

Mixon isn't 3rd string so there's that. Currently in a timeshare but most know that won't last. I'll take his upside over rob kelley all day

What to do with Joe Mixon? I drafted him in a ppr league in which my RB depth is pretty lacking. Outside of Bell it goes: James White, Tevin Coleman, Jamaal Charles. Not bad ppr RBs, and my WR are studs so it's a better situation than if it were standard league, but I need Mixon's role to expand. I bought into the hype that he'd take over the Cinci backfield, but it doesn't look good. Just wondering if he's gonna be a bench rider all season or if y'all think there is any hope of him becoming the guy for the Bengals.

It's been ONE game.
Put him on the bench until his role expands

With Mixon pretty much everyone, including myself, thinks he gets the keys eventually. I drafted him anticipating him having no real value in the beginning of the season.

I don't understand why they still give it to Hill but Mixon owners just have to wait this out until Lewis throws in the Hill towel and rides Mixon.

Mixon was dressed as my RB3 after Gordon and Ajayi and I'm just benching him until he has a good game and maybe is finally flex worthy

Cincy O line looks terrible, has me worried regarding Mixon.

Looks like a bottom 5 unit to me.

Question. I have Hunt in .5 ppr and drafted Charcoal as a handcuff. Kamara cleared waivers and I'm wondering if I should dump West for him. Other RBs are Hyde, Gillislee and Carson.

I'm leaning towards no right now. Just throwing it out there.

Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter
For the first time in almost a month, Giants' WR Odell Beckham Jr. is practicing today. He is participating in individual drills.

Also, Danny Woodhead to IR until week 11, Jeremy Langford added to roster.
