Gio definately needs a lot of touches as well especially as a 3rd down back.
He can pick up the blitz well too, just like Mixon. That is what i like about these guys they have similar traits, both
have great hands, can run routes, are explosive and both can pick up the blitz. Would be nice to see both of them
on the field at the same time at times.

Like I pointed out, last year there was only 9 rushers (10 if you count Elliot) that topped a thousand yards, but 2002 to 2012 had at least 15 players with over a thousand yards rushing, and 2006 even had 23, but it's been below 10 (or just over) since 2012.
There's also teams using multiple players in the backfield now, even if they're not getting a lot of carries.
That is all true, nice post Brad.
