On this episode of Chatterbox Bengals, the discussion centers around two big names who could generate plenty of attention if they became available — Odell Beckham Jr. and Tyreek Hill. Both players have had tremendous NFL careers, but neither feels like the right answer for the Bengals right now. Cincinnati has more important factors to consider than simply adding the biggest available name, and there are questions about whether either veteran would actually provide the kind of impact the offense needs.

The conversation also turns to the Bengals' running game and whether changes could be coming after the struggles early in the season. Cincinnati may need to get more creative with how the running backs are used, particularly by experimenting with more runs from shotgun formations.

Running out of shotgun could give the offense more flexibility, create different looks for opposing defenses and potentially help the Bengals find more consistent production on the ground. With Joe Burrow operating the offense, forcing defenses to account for the passing game while creating additional opportunities in the run game could be worth exploring.

There is plenty to figure out for Cincinnati as the season moves forward, from managing injuries at receiver to finding answers in the running game. The Bengals don't necessarily need another superstar — they need the right pieces and a scheme that maximizes what is already on the roster.

This episode of Chatterbox Bengals breaks down the receiver situation, the Beckham and Hill possibilities, why neither veteran should necessarily be the answer, and what changes could help get the Bengals' running game moving in the right direction.
