Without cmc as an outlet last year cam would have been doomed with nobody to get first downs

Agree but for an 8th overall pick he wasn't a game changer, which is what you want for a top 10 pick. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of McCaffrey but he wasn't the 8th best player in the draft last year.

He's an 8. He's not built to run up the middle on handoffs but SHULA BE DAMNED. He's a scat back and check down option and in terms of that he's perfect

Well give him 15 carries a game and maybe 80 catches with decent blocking and he may get 1700 yards from scrimmage and multiple tds

He needs a bigger back as a short yardage complement and we are in great shape

Yeah, I think Norv will better utilize Christian.

I agree. I think a lot of the problem was Shulas schemes

oh christ i wonder how many of you saying CMC can’t run between tackles actually watch football.

[Saca312]

of course, even when i display clear evidence of CMC running between the tackles, most of you would reply

“but hur dur that’s only a few gifs you could nitpick anything”

despite clear indication i’m showing a sample of what clearly was reoccurent on film. like why would I post every snap CMC’s ever taken on this forum lmao.

so i can’t wait to hear how CMC can’t run between the tackles even more despite his film showing a different story.

6.5 - 2017

9 -2018

2017: Meh.

7/10 seems good. Started as 6/10 finished 8/10 so 7 for the full year with splashes of 9s in some games. I thinking with Turner and based on how he was finishing the year he will be 9/10 next year.

I don't know how you can say he isn't a game changer when in fact he is. I will agree that he wasn't the 8th best player in last year's draft, but not a single draft in the history of the game, are all top 10 picks the top 10 players in the draft class.
