Here's Mixon and the 6 RBs behind him on the rushing yards list...

Joe Mixon: 1,137 yards (4.1 YPC)/5 TD  in 16 games
Dalvin Cook: 1,135 yards (4.5 YPC)/13 TD  in 14 games
Marlon Mack: 1,091 yards (4.4 YPC)/8 TD  in 14 games
Aaron Jones: 1,084 yards (4.6 YPC)/16 TD  in 16 games
Carlos Hyde: 1,070 yards (4.4 YPC)/6 TD  in 16 games
Mark Ingram: 1,018 yards (5.0 YPC)/10 TD  in 15 games
Saquon Barkley: 1,003 yards (4.6 YPC)/6 TD  in 13 games

According to your method, Joe Mixon is a better RB than Dalvin Cook because he got 2 more rushing yards... despite averaging .4 yards less per carry, and having 8 less TDs and doing it in 2 less games.

Does YPC and TDs (and, you know, context) not matter, or do you just want to skew stats to fit your view?

Over 800 of Mixons yards (4.6 YPC) and all of his TDs came in the last 8 games after the blocking change during the by week.
