Receiving wasn't an issue for him last year either, but he seems to be awfully different once he is handed the ball. Maybe his future is to lose 10-ish pounds and become a slot receiver if he can't solve whatever problems he's having be if vision/decisiveness/whatever.

So what kind of knee-jerk drama queen starts crying after 7 carries in the next preseason?

Probably the kind who refuses to acknowledge the highlight reel receiving td Mixon had in the first preseason game.

And the kind who refuses to acknowledge that a lot of people in the national media are excited about Mixon based on his "production" at the end of last year and not just "hype".

You know what kind I am talking about?


 

Almost like you don't even read other people's posts before you turn into a little snarky "drama queen".

I am not talking about just this preseason. You give me shit for small sample sizes while ignoring the fact I am referring to his whole career thus far, and then try to cherry pick 4 games out of 20. That's not hypocritical at all.

I also explicitly said he doesn't have a problem receiving and that I think his future is as a receiver. You know, the exact opposite of refusing to acknowledge any receiving he's done...

...but I am sure you didn't intentionally ignore the contents of my post in order to whine about the exact things I addressed, because you wouldn't be that kind of person, right?
