Yeah, I am not particularly concerned about the fumble. I am a bit concerned about the low YPC and that he still isn't on the field in 2 minute drives because he's considered an inferior blocker. I like Gio, but a guy can't be elite if when the game is on the line and you need a scoring drive before time runs out, he's standing on the sidelines while his backup is making plays.
Mixon didn't touch the ball in the final 8 minutes of the game. Meanwhile Gio had a 7 yard run and a 10 yard catch on the final drive. Give me a RB who can help me come from behind in the 4th quarter.
