But, that said, if Mixon wants to be the bell cow and be in on the majority of plays, he needs to improve his blocking quickly. He about got Andy killed with one completely missed block. Gio is the best blocking RB we have. And with the lack of oline protection, the RB HAS to be able to pick up a blitzer. It's that simple. We cannot run every down, the RB has to be able to block so Dalton has time to throw.

On that play Fisher blocker no one. Fisher allowed the 265 pound Dupree free run into the backfield. In the meantime, Fisher stared inside at no one. Dupree ate up Mixon and got the sack. Mixon didn’t do much, but it’s hard to stop a 265 pound rush backer who has a 7-8 yard head of steam. Fisher looked like a moron on that play.
