Same number as Gurley, and just behind Barkley and McCaffrey with a terrible offensive line and absolutely no weapons on the field the last several games of the season. Lack of toughness? The guy came back from knee surgery after missing just two games. He's one of the few players on this team who shows any passion or fire on the field. You may not like the guy from a personal standpoint given his past, and that's fair, but this team has WAY more things to worry about than this guy.
NPC with a strawman argument.
Never said Mixon was a concern.... only that based off of the hype, he is a disappointment. Again I am still waiting for me to like this guy, since I was against his drafting and was told that when he just dominates and takes over games and we win that I would begin to love him. Well 2nd year, same result, no dominating performance.
Never said that this team should draft a RB to replace him. We do need OLine help big time. Especially at the OT position. We could use better LBers and possibly some DLine help as well.
Mixon is soft. His knee surgery wasn't a bad break, just a clean out, one that has a 2-4 week resting period. Again NPCs love them some Mixon by conflating events to try and elevate Mixon to being better than he actually is.
