The volume is high (on pace for 321 carries), but it's not insanely high like Derrick Henry's was in 2020 (378).
The top RBs in the league typically carry it around 300 times in a 16-game season.
Mixon is just doing what guys like Henry, Elliott, Chubb, Cook, and McCaffrey have done season after season in the past.
I think it does make sense though to start giving more carries to Evans and Perine later in games based on score and potential playoff appearance impact. Can't potentially go into playoff game with Mixon hobbled.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
