Running Backs
#16
People used to say that Marshawn Lynch wasn't anything special in Buffalo.  He was constantly hit in the backfield and had to wrestle after first contact in order to grind out minimal yardage.  Mixon's situation reminds me of that.  The eyeball test lets you know that the dude can flat out play.  He has catches where he looks like a receiver.  He has blocks where he looks as mean as any blocking RB.  He has jukes and angles that make good defenders look silly.  Mixon can't be judged based upon yards alone imo.  It's also my opinion that the coaching staff is doing things ass backwards by rotating Mixon out on passing downs - what they should do is rotate by series, not downs.   Let Gio bang some runs between the tackles and let Mixon show off his passing game chops every once in a while.  They're both flexible enough to pull that off.
