I deserve, and expect a lot of poo for this one... 

I traded McCaffery for Nuke Hopkins week 2 in a half PPR fantasy league because I didn't think he was gonna get any TD work....

Lay it on me guys.

CMC had more rushing yards yesterday than Kamara has had ALL SEASON.

Kamara is the only back in NO right now and his touches will go down once Ingram comes back.  

CMC is just as good as Kamara.  Everyone from last year is awfully quiet now.

Both are great players.

 

 

 

 

McC is better. Look at the line the Aints have compared to ours and then they have a Sean payton and Drew Brees offense...

Lol.

Everyday my dynasty league trade last yearlooks better. Traded from 1.01 to 1.02 in rookie draft with a guy who loved Fournette. Landed an extra 1st and 2nd of which I used the extra 2nd to draft Mahomes and packaged the extra first with another player for Travis Kelce.

CMC is an every down back. Kamara needs Ingram on early downs because he is not a bell cow 

[Khyber53]

Yep. Told ya. Just wait, it gets better.

I created a positive cmc thread before and someone deleted it. Guess they thought  I was being sarcastic.

Let's not forget the gapping holes the running backs were given by this OL.  CMC is a good scatback. However he still needs more power when running into the first defender. Great GAME. First 100 yard rushing game for CMC. Rejoice

Kamara had 30 touches yesterday. Has 1 less touch than CMC this year, and he returned punts yesterday.

I think he showed pretty good power when he was running over and stiff arming guys all over the place. I don't know the exact yardage but I'm sure a good chunk of the nearly 200 yards came after contact.

All those very young guys and AP "washed up" butt is up there.  that was just nice to see

Yeah, McCaffrey tossing linebackers aside is impressive as hell. Like Troy said a couple weeks ago, he's short but he's not small. The dude is thick and strong as all hell.

Short = low = evasive/invisible, when added to power and great vision.  The hesitation step others have mentioned (a la Bell) is a special gift, allowing a potential (like, right in front of him) tackler to commit first, to the direction they Think he's going, then swiftly sidestep that error.  Must be very frustrating to LBs to grab air, and watch the play from behind.
