Should Mixon get his job back
#51

You were big on Hill when the season started and now you're big on Gio. I don't think you've said a positive word about Mixon all year long. It is what it is.

As for the line, I'm not sure why you're so stubborn on this.

Gio before Browns game? 3.5 YPC. 
Gio since? 5.6 YPC

Mixon before Browns game? 2.9 YPC
Mixon since? 4.9 YPC

Both went from varying levels of "bad" to "excellent". I don't care who starts or who gets the most carries. I'd just like to see you admit the line was seemingly the problem all along. The numbers certainly suggest as much. Both backs have seen an increase in YPC of at least 2 yards per tote. That's incredible. If it's not the line, I'd love to hear what you think it is.
So both before and after the Cleveland game Gio was averaging over 1/2 yard per carry more than Mixon while all along I suggest Gio may have been the better choice and "I'm stubborn"? Classic.

I think I've mentioned numerous times why I think it is, but as you would love to her it; I'll share it again and type slowly: I think in the 2017 NFL football season that Gio Bernard would have been a better choice to get the majority of the carries than Joe Mixon. Once Gio has been given the bulk of the carries he has excelled. Even though some "non-stubborn" board member assured me his numbers would drop like a rock.  

My opinion has not changed since the start of the season.  I gave Joe many props after the Cleveland game and defended him against the "well it was just Cleveland crowd". Do you know anybody who said something along those lines?
