Looked like a hip drop to me
Mixon calls out NFL for not enforcing hip-drop ban
Texans RB Joe Mixon called out the NFL on social media for not enforcing its own rules after injuring his ankle on what he believed to be an illegal hip-drop tackle during Houston's win over the Bears on Sunday night.www.espn.com
He was traded for a 6th round pick. He has 3 years of tape out in the nfl to act like he is anything but a backup is being dumbFields lost his job in a piss poor ORG who had a 1ST OA QB replace him. He's not a typical back up. To act as if he is and to suggest as much is being intellectually dishonest.
Yup, and so did Sam Darnold (who I wanted ) and now look at how much better he played with the correct coaching. People love to always call players a bust, 50% time the player is usually put in a position to fail.He was traded for a 6th round pick.

Darnold did get traded for a 6th plus a 2nd and 4th he was also drafted higher than Justin. Sam has 3 seasons of 2500 plus passing yards in a seasonYup, and so did Sam Darnold (who I wanted ) and now look at how much better he played with the correct coaching.

Which is why I thought it was stupid to dump KP when they did, they never gave him a legit OC to work with. Fact is, Tomlin liked Fields better than KP. We'll eventually find out he was right but it could take years.
What he was traded for doesn't mean shit! CHI went out of their way to accommodate him and said as much. This was not a typical situation. Context and Nuance is important here. But again to act as if he's a back up in a conventional sense, well, that is dumb!He was traded for a 6th round pick.

At least you are moving from the distant past into the more immediate - albeit preseason - past? You’re maybe about to run out of bad tape?Mitch tribsky made a pro bowl and lead the bears to the playoffs. Again Fields in ore season should have been the best player on the field against 2nd and 3rd string players he wasn’t
Having watched the games, how is this a no brainer?RW time. Can always go back to Fields.
Fields legs have come in handy at times but going to Wilson is an absolute no brainer to me.
have there been a weird amount of penalties that have cost them chunk plays and TDs? Sure. But this team has scored 1 TD. Need to figure out if RW can get them more TDs and points.
They’ve scored 1 single TD in 2 weeks and thrown for 273 total yards.Having watched the games, how is this a no brainer?
Benching a QB kills his confidence. They’re people, not robots.
The play calling has been conservative and big passing plays have been wiped out because of penalties. Do you think they’re gonna start airing it out with Russ?They’ve scored 1 single TD in 2 weeks and thrown for 273 total yards.
Fields has basically given you high end backup play. Why not see what RW can do?

I do not think fields has played that well tbhBut why do that when Fields is playing well, rather than waiting for him to play himself out of the role?
They’re 2-0 with Fields so far and Fields is playing well. If they start losing with Fields or if Fields starts playing poorly, you can go to Wilson then. I just don’t see a point in going to Wilson right now.
