You do realize he was battling an injury most of the year? And it's not just M.I., the O-Line hasn't been great at run-blocking. Kind of like RR, I guess the lack of a run-game deserves a scapegoat though

yeah, I know, but if hes not durable thats a problem also. I dont see AP crying about his #26th ranked OL. AP produces just fine with no excusses, like PT. IF MI needs a giant hole made by the OL hes no RB, simple.

PT = 3.8 ypc

MI 5.6 ypc

PT = 13 long

MI = 34 long

Yeah I see how PT produces with a not so great O-Line...

IF hes not durable then he will never be great. Good RB's dont need a great OL. Anyone can run for 20 yards threw a giant hole mitch without being touched. Good RB's beat the 1st guy always or more, or they are not a RB. I was taught that when I ran. Anyone can run for 20-40 yards and get tackled by the 1st guy. Thats OL, not a RB. Good RB's almost always beat the 1st guy.

Well I disagree. Great RBs might not need a great OL, but good RBs can certainly become great running behind a great OL (See Emmit Smith). Mark has struggled and some of that is on him, but when he has just a little room, well, we all saw it.

I'm not saying his worries are over. That remains to be seen, but none of our backs have been good THIS year, and that's on the OL in my humble opinion.
