You were big on Hill when the season started and now you're big on Gio. I don't think you've said a positive word about Mixon all year long. It is what it is.
As for the line, I'm not sure why you're so stubborn on this.
Gio before Browns game? 3.5 YPC.
Gio since? 5.6 YPC
Mixon before Browns game? 2.9 YPC
Mixon since? 4.9 YPC
Both went from varying levels of "bad" to "excellent". I don't care who starts or who gets the most carries. I'd just like to see you admit the line was seemingly the problem all along. The numbers certainly suggest as much. Both backs have seen an increase in YPC of at least 2 yards per tote. That's incredible. If it's not the line, I'd love to hear what you think it is.
Both these backs just out of nowhere just started carrying the ball way better Shake, yah know.
Plus it was the Browns man, we always run on the Browns, oh wait, first game we didn't did we?
The Steelers suck at stopping the run man, oh wait, we hardly ever run good on the Steelers and they are
ranked pretty high against the run. Hmmm, Gio and Mixon must of just magicly turned it on.
Nothing to do with the O-line blocking more aggressively and less passive dude, no way.
