In fact, he got injured before Burrow with what you're saying is a light workload. Can Joe handle the workload? There is a sharp dropoff to Perrine and unknowns behind him. If Joe goes down again, we're going to be one dimensional on offense again, whether anybody wants that or not.
You can't put your QB or your RB on a pitch count. You call the game to try and win. You can't win calling the game scared.
Joe Mixon really isn’t a star. Plus rb’s have a short shelf life.
It’s about helping burrow. The qb. A crappy run game and having him throw a ton isn’t ideal
