Cincy Jungle on Samaje Perine
From the article
Perine has added a much-needed spark each time he enters the game. That consistent spark has given Perine more snaps, and he officially surpassed Brown in carries against the Dolphins. Perine finished the day with 14 carries for 68 yards while Brown tallied 39 yards on 13 carries... Perine found the end zone on a touchdown pass from Joe Burrow... the scheme we ran more of yesterday leans into what Samaje does well, which is get downhill and run through contact.
STACKED’s take
Perine out-carried Brown 14-13 vs. Miami; gained snaps after Brown's fumble.
Perine has added a much-needed spark to the Bengals run game and officially surpassed Chase Brown in carries against Miami with 14 carries for 68 yards and a touchdown pass from Joe Burrow. After Brown's fumble in the second quarter, Perine received five additional snaps compared to Brown for the remainder of the game. Pre-fumble, Perine had 10 snaps, 4 carries, 3 routes, and 1 target; post-fumble, he accumulated 20 snaps, 10 carries, and increased involvement. Offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher indicated the team will continually assess touch share between the two backs, noting that the scheme they ran against Miami leans into what Perine does well: getting downhill and running through contact.
