I already did. You responded to it.
Quote:Samaje Perine converts short yardage runs at a higher percentage than Mixon does with Perine converting 69% of his attempts and Mixon converting 67%. Perine also breaks significantly more tackles than Mixon does along with averaging more yards after contact.
Using PFF as the source, Joe Mixon ranks 54th out of 66 RBs in elusiveness which is a stat that measures broken tackle ratio (broken tackles/rush attempts) and yards after contact. Perine is tied for 17th out of 66. Last year, Mixon ranked 57th out of 62 where Perine ranked 32nd out of 62. In 2021, Mixon ranked 45th out of 73. Perine ranked 42nd out of 73.
Over at least the last three years, Perine has consistently broken tackles more often and gained more yardage after contact. I'm not even sure why you're choosing this as your hill to die on. Perine weighs 236 compared to Mixon's 220 and is a known freak in the weight room. He was already squatting 600 pounds in high school.
