Basically, defenses should play run first when Mixon is behind Joe under center; everyone in the league knows it. And everyone knows that Mixon can be ignored in the passing game as receiver or a blocker, either, unlike Gio. RE: Joe Mixon - Nicomo Cosca - 10-02-2022 Watching all these other games and it’s absolutely shocking how much better literally every other RB is than Mixon right now.

Like guys I’ve never heard of ripping off longer runs than Mixon has all year. RE: Joe Mixon - LSUfaninTN - 10-02-2022 I'm gonna echo what someone else said, runningbacks typically have a short shelf life, and I think it just may be his time. Hopefully he made his money.

Hopefully he made his money. They signed him to a nice extension at the start of the 2020 season: https://www.nfl.com/news/bengals-signing-rb-joe-mixon-to-4-year-extension. He made his money.

Plenty of RB’s around the league are doing far, far better than Mixon behind bad OL’s. Mixon is playing below replacement level football right now. He’s indecisive, slow, and gets taken down as soon as someone breathes on him. He’s also tipping plays.

All the games i skimmed through the backs were playing better I didn’t realize Mixon was THIS bad RE: Joe Mixon - Fan_in_Kettering - 10-02-2022 Watching Nick Chubb power his way through the Falcons’ defense was interesting. Kareem Hunt ran well too. Yes, I know the Turds have a great offensive line but Chubb and Hunt ran well in space too.

I’m thinking mixon will improve, and people will disregard the historically worst RB play in history this far. There’s only one way to go (up) when you’re playing this bad. But yeah dreaming we had any other run game, over here.

Most teams wish they had burrow, but I think we have a valid jealousy issue.

It wouldn’t be the 1st or last time we’ve seen a RB’s game fall completely off a cliff around this age. RE: Joe Mixon - QueenCity - 10-02-2022 Everyone knows there is risk in giving RB 2nd contracts.... one of the biggest perhaps is motivation. You want you RB's to run angry... do you run angry when you have a nice little paycheck? I don't know, I didn't play professional football. But I think it's something to ponder.

Yes, I know the Turds have a great offensive line but Chubb and Hunt ran well in space too. I watched bits and pieces of the Stains today. And I saw Chubb especially and hunt powering through would be tacklers. Dragging 2 guys for 3 extra yards. And I was like WOW that's what running with desire, heart, and aggression looks like ![]() RE: Joe Mixon - KillerGoose - 10-02-2022 (10-02-2022, 04:50 PM)Nicomo Cosca Wrote: A lot of the problem is Mixon himself.

You have to take anything OU-related from him with a grain of salt. He was beating the "Joe Mixon for MVP" drum this off-season. While it is true that the offensive line hasn't done Mixon very many favors, it is also true that Mixon has flat out sucked. The offensive line was awful last season and while he was a low efficiency back, he still produced. This isn't the worst start he has had in his career, though. In 2017, his rookie season, he was averaging only 2.61 yards per carry after the first four games. The bad news is he was awful that season, but the whole team wasn't very great. Regardless, since 1999, Mixon is showing up in the top 50-60 worst starts via yards per carry and EPA per rush. Safe to say that is bad news. I think his leash needs to be short and the other guys should be seeing more carries if he is struggling. Going 24 for 62 isn't helping anyone.

I got paid the same whether I did a good or bad job. That was a lack of motivation. I think mixon has the pressure of a super bowl caliber team behind him, and he’s trying his best but it’s like a dalton scenario to me, not good enough.

Just because Mixon is on a big contract doesn't mean we should keep handing him the ball if he's not getting it done. I would surmise that the Bengals are just waiting for the "real" Mixon to emerge (if he's still able to, of course). But i believe they think he is still a top 5 back.

And like many have said the Oline hasn't been great. But Mixon's problems run way deeper than just the Oline. And I wouldn't be surprised if his struggles continue into the next game he starts getting his snaps reduced.
