Brown has been able to win some one on one's, which your RB has to be able to do to have a successful running attack in the NFL. He's also shown a great burst and open field speed, so he can do major damage if he gets it in the open field.
However, the run game wasn't really effective in this one. Mixon averaged 3.8 a carry and Brown only 3.1. They ran the ball a lot to chew clock because the D was completely shutting Indy down. The Colts only had 272 yards of offense. Also, they wanted to chew clock because they were coming off an OT game on a short week.
