To the nay sayers ... You aren't as informed as Gettleman...

I think it is safe to say the Panthers absolutely know what they are getting in CMC... at least more than youtube scouts. 

Dave Gettleman

"Well I watched all of his touches over two years. So what’s that, 700 touches he had between running and passing? And the returns. It was really funny, I was just talking to Mr. Richardson about it. There was a run he had and I don’t remember who it was against so don’t ask but he was running in the tackle box. He sees the backside linebacker. The front side linebacker is getting blocked. It’s a real tight space and he cuts his angle and actually bangs off that linebacker who is getting blocked and the backside linebacker couldn’t get there because of the angle he took. Then he steps on the gas like the road runner and see you later. That was pretty special."

Yeah well, I watched all his highlight tapes on youtube and Fournette had better highlight tape because ________!

There you go guys, I provided you with a template for your unabashedly outrageous McCaffrey hate!

I can now safely say I'm on the Run CMC bandwagon.

 

He's a Panther now, sue me.

I'm really digging the Run CMC nickname. Saw that it's his handle on some sort of social media. That's what took away most of my reservation about him

      Joe Person: Andy Dalton will 'get another crack' as starting QB

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Rumors I've read, and just watching Young and the  play calling, seems to indicate that Canales does not believe in Young …at all ..maybe he was  told by  owner, gm, etc that the franchise is moving  on …Or maybe Canales sees the limited plays calls with young under  center i mean, it is all conjecture  …but let’s  face it…126 yards…what more is there to say…yes there were drops but all qbs have those  He needs to do really really well against KC and  even  if he does…might not be enough  i suspect they will either trade him before draft or will draft  a qb and have an open competition   If he stays, it might be as a backup

      Bryce Young is HIM.

      I would argue this has literally always been the case for almost the entire existence of the NFL. There are substantially more busts than hits, across all rounds. I would say also that there doesn't appear to be much evidence for college quarterbacks being less prepared than before. Certainly in some cases they are vastly underprepared but that has always been the case.  I would definitely make the argument that in every single major sport that athletes are VASTLY more experienced than 20, 30 and more years ago. A lot of that is due to earlier specialization in sport(versus just playing all the sports from K-12), DRAMATICALLY more reps and practice(travel ball, summer leagues, etc) and far greater access to specialized training(most high end players/prospects have specific trainers even before college). All of these things were not readily available decades ago. So the theoretical "10,000 reps" are being hit far, far sooner for most younger athletes. As for the argument for "gimmick offenses" being a problem. I mean....think about how prevalent things like the triple option were in the 70's, 80's and even 90's. Or just offenses in general that were absolutely extinct at the NFL level.  I think there are some general issues with certain positions and the development cycles in college but overall, the development in college has actually improved tremendously. The thing is, it's never going to improve enough to where you are just getting insanely high hit rates on prospects or large percentages of draft picks immediately playing like 8 year veterans. It will never really work like that.

      Updated 2025 draft order

      Yeah sure some teams are not gonna want to have to recruit a QB like its college BUT you got add in desperation. One team WILL fall in love and go after him. A HC or GM on the hot seat will look past deion and draft him.
