Yeah and that's the problem, Gio pass blocks clearly better than Mixon. Burrow needs time.
Lately we're losing because of our defense so maybe it's a wash, but we need a lot more Gio in games, I don't know how Mixon responds to that frankly I don't think he takes to competition well from a teammate.
If you don't want to lose snaps better learn to block.
And I agree, instead of paying Mixon (and Gio) so much, should have fixed offensive line and gotten average RB. Burrow gets time, average RB gets at least as good production as Mixon currently does (which is not saying much). Also can attract better RB if they know they have a line to work with.
I would have liked to see Mixon traded for line help and see what Gio can do behind a better line, because Burrow would have gotten the help he needed to sustain. The freak dalton accident can come and mixon's production is not worth his salary.
