He's a big dude but seems to have long legs and a high center of gravity so he can get knocked off balance fairly easy. 

Mixon also had the most rushing attempts in the league last year (including playoffs) so maybe with the wear and tear over the years he's losing a step not due to any outside forces. 

You're right. I didn't even know he had been dinged up. That explains a lot discussing last night. I'm certainly not going to question effort regarding Joe, just seemed something was off, and an injury certainly explains that. He's had a lot miles wracked up for sure, I hope it hasn't worn him down prematurely.

Ah....thanks Sled. I missed that totally.
