Joe Mixon next season?

Mixon is better from shotgun than he is under center. I aggregated some data here and I'll share it below...

So, Mixon averages roughly 11% less yards per attempt when they go under center but gains explosive runs about 30% more. However, he is also tackled for a loss nearly twice as much. Since Mixon came into the league in 2017, there are 23 running backs who have had 500+ carries in that timespan. Mixon ranks 18th out of 23 in yards per attempt on under center rushes. 

This isn't to call you out specifically, but I have seen several people on here and Reddit saying this exact same thing as if Mixon is so much better under center when on an aggregate, he is actually worse. 

Not a lot of goal line or short yardage situations in shotgun formation.
Only users lose drugs.
