We need to draft a Center in the 2nd Round next year.
But basically ALL of our backs put up underwhelming stats because of the line.
Obviously not an endorsement of the OL, but Gio still ran 4 times for 16 yards (4 YPC).
He's now averaging 4.9 YPC this year.
Combined with 8 catches for 133 yards (16.6 AVG).
The OL is bad, but Gio is still having a good year. I think Hill is who he is, and Mixon just isn't that great. Like a guy who looks much better than he is. It's time to up Gio's touches. He's only averaging a little under 7 touches a game, but is turning those 7 touches into 56 yards a game.
