It's like as soon as someone gets close to him he just dives forward to get a yard or two instead of lowering a shoulder and plowing through. I'm not sure if he's forgotten how he used to run, or if he just can't push off that ankle, but I'm ready to see less of him and more or Perine/Evans.
Correct 100% spot on! Mixon goes down after the first initial contact and doesn't keep his legs moving nor does he try and break tackles. He reminds me very much of the early 1990s Rb Eric Ball, who was also worthless IMO. Both of these RBs dance in the hole and allows themselves to be taken down by arm tackles.
