Blame the run game

[Whatever]

He's just that single thorn that Burrow won't be able to hurdle (amongst everything else he's hurdling) - having no run game whatsoever. Don't care if he runs for 200 next game, he's consistently bad.

Gotta love the Zac quote that Mixon is not the reason they lost today (when questioned about his 16 yards rushing). It's not like it helped, when you blame everyone nothing changes. Zac's record without Burrow is going to be hilariously bad after this season.

Callahan had a very interesting quote that they basically go away from the run game when "it doesn't work" for 1-2 plays. It's hard to say if he's talking about himself or Zac, yet another no taking responsibility situation.

Mixon may be terrible.  He's also the best RB we have as proven through performance.  There's a reason Brown is a 4th stringer and can't even beat out guys like Williams and Evans.  Just because Mixon may not be the answer doesn't mean Brown is.  The beat writers that cover the team have seen plenty of Brown in practice.  If they aren't asking the question, there's a good reason why.
