What about his lack of a reception? Burrow hit him right in the chest in the End Zone and he dropped it. Wasn't even close to catching it.
I keep hearing about he's such a capable receiving back, yet I hardly ever see evidence to support it. This guy continually puts up lower tier receiving numbers for a RB1, and I keep waiting for him to move beyond his typical 300 yards a season.
We're paying him top tier money to play a role similar to Derrik Henry. The problem is, Derrik Henry doesn't average high 3's, low 4's per carry, and he scores a helluva lot more than 6 TD's a season.
For Joe Mixon to ever be worth near what we've commited to paying him he's going to have to produce more in the pass game.
