And I think you are way off base. You don't get coach of the year 2 of your last 5 years not being able to make good personnel decisions and who to play or sit. And let's be clear, Gettleman has had more than his share of misses and poor decisions. I don't hold him in better stead than Rivera. Hurney 1.0 had issues for sure. But Hurney 2.0 has yet to screw up. His few moves so far have been solid.

Riverboat Marty!

If it comes down to who is a better RB, it's CAP.  Fozzy has more value in ST and the passing game.  I think we need CAP more incase Stewart gets banged up.  He's a better replacement for the banger we need.  Who else is on the roster who can run with the needed power?  

I wasn't high on CAP this off season, but he's gone out of his way to show up in the preseason games.  He looks like he could be a quality NFL player for us, for sure.

I have seen CAP make plays in the passing game as well..People are not perfect they will drop a few here and there..I havent seen where fozzy has made guys miss, nor has he powered thru anyone...CAP has a since of urgency  and he is hungry...i saw CAP and its not even close to me.

I'll be honest, I barely remember CAP playing much, except for those fumbles!  I agree that this preseason he has looked really really good.

What you said might be accurate if Ron and his staff sucked at talent management but they don't. How many guys over the years have been cut here and went on to be great elsewhere? Less than a handful in the last 5;years maybe. Now how many guys have come here as JAGs, UDFAs and reclamation projects and had success here? Way more than a handful.  The whole Ron can't manage talent thinking comes from posters who think it is easy to just plug in rookies and Jags into starting roles with no consequences. Ron and the coaching staff have a history of playing and developing talent at a much higher rate than most other teams. What he won't do is put in a rookie or JAG until he is convinced they are ready to start and are a clear upgrade to a veteran with experience in the league.

I like your post. But I will say that I think Ron tends to be a little too conservative, or take a little too long, to make temporary---or even permanent---changes sometimes. I know that I need to, but I still can't get over him leaving Cam in last year, or not getting the other receivers in there when the vets were going through the motions. When you're not going to the dance, let's see what the youngsters have.

Fozzy is a poor man's CMC, so I'll take CAP since we need someone to fill the short yardage role if (when) Stewart is injured.

Cameron Artis-Payne!!

 

Any way they can just morph these two guys into one player?

cool

Fozzy is not good on special teams, below average at best in KR. Would much rather have CAP as a backup due to JStew's injury history.

This isn't even a question in my eyes.  CAP all day.

[whatever]

CAP...and it's not even close.

[pantherclaw]

CMC smashes Fozzy all day, everyday.

I'll take CAP, cause we can't afford to let go of a talented, hard runner.
