Joe Mixon Still A Must-Start In Week 7
2 years agoCincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has struggled this season. He has only 347 rushing yards off 104 attempts for a disastrous 3.3 yards per carry. He also hasn't surpassed the 100-yard mark on the ground in any of his appearances and has only two total touchdowns to his credit. The team's offensive line can take some of the blame. However, the unit has been playing better, so Mixon is running out of excuses. Yet, there is hope on the horizon, as the 26-year-old will go up against a Falcons defense that has surrendered 390 total yards per game this season, which isn't good. While Mixon hasn't done enough to gain the trust of fantasy managers, he remains a must-start in Week 7 due to the favorable matchup.
