Because this is a case of hacking at the branches and missing the root. It's not about liking or disliking Mixon, I really don't care one way or the other. It's the nonsense that gets spewed on here that is simply not the case. Joe runs fine when the line blocks for him. The people who keep going on about him being the problem completely miss the mark when Chase Brown has all of 0.1 YPC for the season more than Joe's 4.0 YPC. But for some reason, some here seem to think he's going to produce where Joe couldn't or that bringing in someone else is going to be the answer?
I'm not falling for the groupthink on this, because that's what this has become.
Get guys who can run block and we will see things get better, until then you are just spinning your wheels and hacking at branches instead of the root.
