Quick Question

[Jeremy Igo]

In an alternative universe, the Panthers passed on CMC and drafted Hunt in the 3rd round. 

1. Does Rivera recognize his potential? 

2. Is Hunt active on game days? 

3. Is he third string behind Stewart and Fozzy? 

 

 

[Popsickle]

1. No

2. No

3. Yes

The answer is on the roster, we need the players to execute better...

[Udogg]

With no injuries?  

I don't think he is active.   Not sure Hunt would have been active if not for injuries in K.C. 

I think coaches / people in general are reluctant to replace people due to trust and the message it sends. 

[Saca312]

Yeah. Andy Reid always makes runningbacks look good in his scheme, and I doubt hunt gets up to speed better than CMC in our offense.

Plus ofc Rivera would hold him back.

Winning quieted the complaining such that we need hypothetical situations the argue?

Gets up to speed better in a Mike Shula Offense better than McCaffrey?  WOW.

We're only starting cmc because he was drafted at 8. No way they'd start hunt if they took him in the third

[TheCasillas]

Did we not change our #1 WR to find more time for our rookie WR? 

In essence, if we spent a third round pick on an athlete like Hunt, he'd see the field somehow.

Someone forced you to post in this thread?

Man not a chance, chances are he ends up intactive until the bye maybe  for sure 3rd string maybe kickoff opportunities he can't see it and when he sees it he doesn't care anyone seen Cap running behind the same line as J Stew two weeks ago just to get put on ice for a ice cold Vet rb. He does things the Rivera way vets until we're forced into something else 

[Cary Kollins]

No way in hell Hunt would be starting ahead of Stewart. He'd probably be averaging 2.3 YPC and alternating with CAP.

[imminent rogaine]

If hunt played, he would get very few carries and they would be the same carries and same blocking schemes that we see CMC get. I think you could expect about the same results.

How about this question:

If after starting his Panther career with 6-10 and 7-9 records, we had replaced Rivera with Andy Reid, would the tailor already be getting HOF-jacket measurements for Cam and Mccaffrey?

I'd think Cam would be a top 3 QB year-in, year-out. Mccaffrey would be OROY, no questions.

[Jeremy Igo]

It wouldn't take Andy Reid, just an above average offensive mind. Going from below average to above average would skyrocket this team to dynasty level. 

[Gregg S]

Hypotheticals are fun to think about. As mentioned, had KC not had their starting running backs go down, Hunt may have never seen the field.  By the same token, had Drew Bledsoe not been injured in 2001, would some little known 6th round pick have ever seen the field for NE? Or might he have been traded like Garoppolo was recently?

Like I said, fun to think about.
