I love Perine, and they should both platoon, but saying he is better than Mixon based on the past four games is just silly.  I am beyond excited to have them both healthy for the stretch run.  Competition improves the breed and I am sure joe is itching to show what he can do with less predictable run sets and an improved line.  The Carolina game should have given everyone a glimpse of what he can do with a solid line and a balanced offense.  

Saying Perine is better than Mixon for this offense is not silly.

Perine hits the open holes and runs over guys. He takes what is there, and doesn’t get cute trying to run outside, which can result in negative yards.

Plus Perine’s pass blocking is elite for a RB. Perine is the perfect RB for this offense
