With Mixon having some years on him, reducing his work load could help maximize his efficiency and his years of experience could benefit him as a blocker on critical 3rd downs. I would want Brown as the primary ball carrier because he hits the hole so quickly and if someone misses a tackle an 8 yard gain could turn into 30 real quick.
We actually agree, I simply didnt word it very well. I was implying that usually the change of pace back is the speedy guy, but Mixon is more trusted with better hands on 3rd downs. Not sure how he would go for it...?
