I'm not too wild about Mixon up the gut, but the wide zones he seems to do pretty good with. Still waiting for him to break a game open with a 90 yard run and TD..
Oh, I think the Bengals and Rams will both run some sweeps, reverses, screens, wide stuff to set up going Deep. It is what both teams do.
However Rams are good at tackling sweeps for losses. Mixon is NOT a pure sweep runner speedster. Mixon is a wear you down as the game goes on.
Ravens and 49ers cracked the Rams Defense with runs inside the Tackles and I think MIXON needs to POUND THE ROCK a little. Many fans hate the inside run, but I tell you it is needed in football. I'm not talking the delayed draw play garbage either. I'm talking SMASH MOUTH.
I don't really want Mixon going 90 yards because that means Bengals are starting at the 10. I hope we get better field positions than that. How about Mixon getting One or Two TOUCHDOWNS in a SUPER BOWL GAME. Or Mixon gaining 100 yards in a SUPER BOWL.
MIXON is THE BEST running back in this Super Bowl, sorry Rams, just the Facts. I'm hoping Mixon gives us the game that Corey Dillon gave Patriots in Super Bowl. MIXON could be difference in this game. Also McPherson.
