Bernard ran hard, but so did Mixon especially on the yards after the catch.
Mixon had the nice catch...and ran hard. However, he had several runs that didn't go for much....whereas Gio seemed to always get at least three. He ran strong for nice gains....and even shoved a defender when two of them couldn't bring him down on his first carry.
I guess we just disagree....but I feel Gio looked better running than Mixon did. That's not to say Mixon was a slouch or anything like that though...he had a nice game.
