Gio is clearly the better overall running back. Blocks better, fits through smaller holes, capable of breaking out big plays, faster.
One thing Mixon is better at is dancing and not taking yards for loss this year.
Those of you who don't even think it's close, you have this thought in your head, when Mixon plays bad it's the offensive line's fault, and when Mixon plays well, (few and far between) - it's not because the line played well.
An average running back can run through holes, the star running back should figure it out.
Anyway I have a big problem with Mixon's blocking, not able to protect our most valuable asset for the future (not himself - our QB). Mixon will be long gone while Burrow is still excelling.
