Not sure what I am wrong about; as I have said all year the Joe should have to earn the starting role and that Gio has performed better. I think it was someone on these boards that told me Gio only had a higher YPC than Mixon because he doesn't have as many touches and if Gio were to ever have to carry the load his YPC would "drop like a rock".
Yep, silly me cannot admit to being wrong.
Eh, you clearly have your favorites Bfine and you like to play favorites. Gio is one of your favorites right now and there
is nothing wrong with that. I like both of these backs but in my eyes Mixon is the rarer talent and if he continues to run
well as Shake has shown he has been running well lately, he should get the bulk.
Depends on who is the hot RB at the time though.
To not mention the O-line is perplexing, they are the REAL reason why these backs are running well right now.
They had no holes till the Browns game when they started to run block more aggressively. Hard for me to blame Mixon
before that game. Have to look at how the O-line is blocking now along with how these backs are running. It is not just
one or the other, there is more to it than that.
