Mixon and Dunlap are great players



Its not fair to rate players as overrated just because our team lacks talent. Move Mixon to a team with a line and he leads the league in YPC, and Id put money on that. The Mixon disrespect is getting stupid to me. One post someone will say we have worst O line in history then that sam eperson 4 posts later will say Mixon is overrated. Thats stupid. 





P.S. not saying you specifically did that. Just saying what iv seen people do. And I think alot of ppl will be able to guess who im talking about if youve been in the game threads.

Can’t remember if it was you or not but someone jumped all over me in the GDT vs Cleveland because I said Mixon is not on the same level as Chubb. And I stand by that. Mixon has probably been my favorite player the past couple seasons, but you just can’t objectively say he’s as good as a Chubb, or a Derrick Henry.

I’ve brought up Belichick calling him the best RB in the league in the past when defending him, but I don’t think he’d take Joe over guys like that if he had his choice today. I don’t think it’s “disrespect” to say there’s a handful of RB’s that are in another tier above him. He’s probably top 10, but maybe not top 5 like I thought he was going to be.

And yes it’s a bit unfair to him because our OL is just so damn bad, but I do think there’s guys that could be having at least a little more success that he’s having right now if they were here.
