This.

I felt way too many times that if Mixon (or Gio) didn't get 8 yards on one of his first two carries that it was going to be another air-it-out day for the offense.

I am not saying I am against airing it out, if that is the weakness of the team you are attacking, but there needs to be a greater emphasis on rushing.  Especially given the "tee off" nature of defenses when they don't have to respect the run at all.  I think Pollack's title alone says they are aware of this and we should see a lot more of Mixon in 2021.
