Where is Gio?

Yeah thats a factor for sure.

But even still Gio should be more featured with Mixon at the same time. Mixon in the backfield, Gio in the slot with AJ and Erickson or LaFell out there as well. 

Then again, maybe they are just being cautious with his knee, and not wanting to push it this year if they dont have to. If that is the case, then that is fine obviously since this season is a wash anyways. Regardless though, Gio has always been vastly underused in the offense under Marvin, because they never think outside of their conventional box.
