The defense has to know that we are not handing the ball off to him, nor will be checkdown to him so they have no threat to worry about. Brown I was hoping could be that guy, but he must not be there yet as a rookie. Evans not being able to do it is disappointing as well. I feel like they should have done more to replace Perine or just have Mixon stay back and chip block and release on a route. At least then the defense will have to take him into account.
I saw Mixon with a few good blitz pickups but it was all around a bad day for him. But i think he’s gotten better. I haven’t seen any MIND BLOWING misses on who he should block. He’s at least targeting the right guy now….just can’t stop him
It’s a bit more discouraging when you see other backs BULLDOZING blitzers. Forget who it was but i saw a 49ers game and SOMEONE just DEADED a blitzer stone cold in his tracks. I got aroused off that
