Instead, they should be used based on what the situation dictates that their skill sets can exploit.
But if Mixon will be the bell-cow, Bengals will be idiots if they do not get Gio in the game as much as possible like as hybrid slot/te for example. He is too good to not see the field when there is literally no other proven playmaker on offense other than AJ.
Agreed...in reality I think, hope that Lazor will make sure that based on their situation they both get decent carries.
What annoys me is the anointing of Mixon as the 'bell cow' / lead guy especially when Gio continues to front up and generally outperform Mixon and Hill (hill rookie year as the exception).
Remember Mixon is the guy a few games into his rookie year says he should have been getting more carries - how about he earns it like Hill did his rookie year and not feed the assumption its his to lose
