Who knows maybe Andy agrees with running it more. I wonder how many other QBs feel that way
I was all for Benson saying it. That's what I expect from a guy who wants to be a bell cow.
I'd say it depends on ypur situation. Troy Aikman probably had no qualms about handing the ball to Emmitt Smith. When you have an Adrian Peterson....do you chuck the ball out of spite? No. Not saying Mixon is the next AP, but maybe in his mind, he is. That's the mindset I'd want from my back. Then again, I tend to be a team first kinda guy.
If you're upset that a rookie doesn't know his place, I can understand that. However....with the tweets from Gio and Dunlap this offseason, and the near mutiny over Zampese, I don't get the sense that the players are trying to get 14 benched. That's just me....
