Joe Mixon carried the ball 19 times for 65 yards and a touchdown while catching one of two targets for five yards in Monday's 19-16 win over the Rams. Mixon hit pay dirt for the first time this season with a 14-yard touchdown scamper on Cincinnati's first offensive drive coming out of the half. The 27-year-old experienced an increase in touches as the Bengals featured a more-balanced gameplan in the win following an 0-2 start. Mixon should continue to dominate the backfield touches in a Week 4 matchup with the Titans next Sunday.
