I think Samaje Perine should be our #1 RB b/c he punishes defenders who try and tackle him. We as a team play a much more physical brand of football with Perine running the rock, and it showed vs. the Titans. He wore them down by the time we got into the 4th quarter. Burrow said after the game, "Today, we just played a more physical brand of football than the Titans." Credit that to none other than Samaje Perine.
I understand Mixon had a record setting day against the Panthers, but I still think Perine's physicality is the direction we need to go. IMO, Mixon is more of a finesse RB and loves to dance around in the hole instead of taking someone's head off. I vote to make Samaje our man and move Mixon to the 3rd down back. Also, Williams needs an opportunity to get more touches, b/c he also showed he can be a punishing RB. We are much deeper at this position than I originally thought.
