I don't see why both can't be true.  Barry Sanders is the only back I can think of off the top of my head that didn't need a decent line to run behind. 

The line played really well Sunday and Mixon had a great day.  That doesn't mean the only reason he had a great day was because the line played great. He's a good back, but getting hit behind the line is going to make anyone look bad (except the aforementioned Barry Sanders).

The OL is still a bad line. To rush for 151 yards behind a bad line is pretty good feat no matter how you slice it.

The really funny part is claiming that the people who were right were "fools" but people like you who were wrong were the smart ones.
