It was like they just didn't want to run out of shotgun much at all, and far too often, went empty set which is like telling the defense, no need to worry about the run, just bull rush.
Better play calling, better protection, and more balance. Have to see improvement there next season or it will just be a repeat of this year.
That one baffles me as well when it comes to Mixon.
In his final year at Oklahoma, he has ZERO touches when lined up behind the center, all of his work came from shotgun formation. So you have the perfect guy that can work in that situation. It's also a better formation as it forces a defender to back off the line.
But why they don't run it is baffling to me
