Beat me to it. That is what stood out to me in Nug's post. Perine is so much more powerful than Mixon, made me shake my head
reading that on my phone. People get mad about the Super Bowl where Perine couldn't get the yardage, but that was also on a
terrible OL going against a great DL. Overall Perine is so much more effective in short yardage than Mixon.
Samaje Perine is still doing it too with the Broncos on a good running team and not on the worst running team in the NFL.
I bet if we still had Perine here we would not be the worst running team in the NFL even with the least amount of snaps. Perine
was respected here and we would give him snaps unlike our current backs and there must be a reason for it.
Mixon still has problems hitting holes and we saw it again on Sunday. Not that there were a lot of holes, but there were a few he
missed.
