What does rookie have to do with? Seriously

So if Mccaffrey doesn't perform I don't want to hear the "he's a rookie excuse"

All I know is what I've seen from actual game tape, Cam will undoubtedly focus on KB more than any other receiving option.

All I am saying is forcing the ball to one player is a mistake. It makes the offense predictable and can lead to bad things. Of course the kid will have rough patches, but did you not watch the Pre Season? He was one of the top rookies out of the class of RB's and he has shown nothing against that. He's not going to come out and be David Johnson right away, but why can't he be Zeke Elliott.

Has anybody considered the possibility that this could have just been a joke? You can't tell one way or the other from a quote with no context. I just don't trust the media, and especially ESPN, enough to judge the guy who said this. They will stab somebody in the back in a second if they can use it to stir up controversy and get clicks/viewers.

The thing is, we've still got people in here who really believe this kind of thinking. The supposed retired football coach being one. 

The fact that they didn't attach their name to it shows they believe that crap, but they hide because they know their opinion is poo because of the place it comes  from and they know they'll get some well deserved backlash for it if it got out.

Mccaffrey having 1400 yards from scrimmage would be force feeding one player......

Why can't he be Elliot? well were to start, he don't have the Cowboys line, Elliot is a better pure runner, Elliot was a week 1 starter, Mccaffrey won't be.

Now let me ask you why shouldn't Cam focus on a talented WR like KB? The steelers and Falcons focus on one WR

And do the Falcons have a TE like Olsen? No They have decent RB's but are they considered top tier RB's? No They have Julio Jones. There other best WR is Sanu. I would say he is about the same as a Funchess. Do you agree that forcing the ball to one receiver can make an offense predictable? 

Why can't McCaffrey and Stewart have great years and Olsen and KB also have great years? Look at the Patriots in 2016. The had Blount at RB. He is not considered to be that great and got over 1,100 rushing yards, than they had Edelman also over 1, 100 receiving yards. And even throw in Gronk who was injured most of the season he also had over 500 receiving yards. So why can't KB, McCaffrey, and Olsen all have great seasons as well. It happens.

The Falcons have the best RB tandem in the league and not only is Sanu better than Funchess, so is Taylor Gabriel. And even with all that talent they still focus on Julio, cause he's that good. It's not predictable when they can't stop you, just ask Julio when he went for 300 on us.

 

We are not the patriots. And 1000 yards from scrimmage for a rookie is a good year, but since his hype has gone so far beyond your making it seem small. Also the chances of every player on our team having breakout seasons is slim to none.

First, just my opinion and I see that it differs than yours that Sanu is no better than Funchess. He is no better than a #2 Receiver and not a great one at that. Pretty much the same as Funchess in my opinion. Taylor Gabriel had a decent year last year with 35 grabs and over 500 yards but 2 years doesn't make him much in my book and his 1st year wasn't much at all. Definitely not as good as Funchess. I agree Julio Jones is an exceptional WR and probably the 2nd best in the league and is dynamic. He is better than KB for sure. I also think that Matt Ryan had a year last year that will not be repeated. This certainly doesn't mean that Julio Jones won't go off because he is just that great of a player. I do however feel that Cam is much more an Athletic QB and can do way more things than Matt Ryan can in a game. I also agree that Freeman and Coleman are a great tandem, but do you know why they are a tandem because neither one of them has the skills to do it all or they would be an every down back. That is the thing with McCaffrey he can do so much coming out of the backfield that a lot of the regular RB's on other teams cannot. He can run up the middle and to the outside, catch the swing pass and across the middle, break tackles, and yes block even though he is not the big according to his teammates. If the Panthers players and coaches are saying this guy can do all this stuff then why not let him do it. We know what KB can do as he can run a route and get deep. That's great and I don't want to abandon that as all. I also don't want to abandon Olsen as well. I just think there is enough talent for Cam to spread it all around and put up tremendous stats because all these guys are playmakers.

We may not be the Patriots, but I see McCaffrey having more athletic talent in his left toe then LeGarrette Blount has. Edelman is pretty much a great possession receiver and KB in my opinion is at least just as good as him although a different type of receiver. And Olsen although he may not be as good as Gronk he certainly is in the top 3 TE's in the league.

Wonder if this same exec thought Joe Montana was jealous of Jerry Rice...
