And what you don't see or just aren't willing to admit is that Mixon is just a touch above Joe average RB. Like as has been said he's all world at holding on to the football, which is something great! And he's a pretty good receiver, however:
He's only going to get what's blocked the vast majority of the time when running the ball. And he just doesn't have that top gear to shift into and turn 6 yard runs into 17. He doesn't have the speed to be effective on those outside toss plays.
He's not even close to a game changer at running the ball.
I’m willing to admit he wasn’t worth what he was getting paid as several other top RB’s have learned. I think he’s an excellent receiver. I think he’s excellent at ball security. He’ll continue to prove his value and will continue to show what many of the experts are saying about him on the broadcasts. But no he’s not better than a top 15 back.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
