also have either of you ever stopped to think why running backs tend to have such short careers? it's usually not because of one brutal injury but years of wear and tear. those hits take a toll. this isn't hard.

 

    lol Cam got concussed because he half azzed it. That will never happen again. But hey, nice try making that sound like the end is coming. 

 

    Mention just 1 RB with Cams size. It is softies like you that will ruin the NFL if you get your way.

 

    Let Cam be Cam. When he slows down, then we can revisit this. Quit projecting your fears on Cam. He is one big kid. He can handle it.

wow! and those are the only hits he's ever taking! so it's pointless to ever try to limit those unnecessary carries! wow!

you can't downplay the carries while simultaneously clinging to them for dear life. if they're not a big deal then let someone else take them.

calling it irrational doesn't make it so. you overestimate the value of picks and underestimate the impact thomas could have on this season alone. you fully exclude the possibility of signing him to an extension, something that would likely be a part of any completed trade anyway. you're not very good at this.

 

 

    You do understand that draft picks are the main resource in team building? Right? But hey, let's just throw 2 2nds at a 1 year rental. That cannot possibly have any repercussions in the future.

 

    Just admit it. All you care about is winning this year. To heck with the rest of us who actually care about Cam, and our future.

"he's never been hurt on a designed run!!!!"

actually he most definitely has been hurt on a designed run

"that doesn't count!!!"

size can and will work against you. size has certainly protected him from big impact injuries but size works against you as those joints start to go. wear and tear.

that's the problem. people like you would be happy to see him ground into the dirt so that then we can "revisit this" and draft his replacement. i want him to extend his career and make use of his elite arm. but im not demanding that today. you people are arguing against a ghost on that one. im saying we should capitalize on his ability and willingness to dominate short yardage situations today. it's not hard.

 

    Yeah, those 8 or so carries a game is just killing Cam. Sheesh.

 

    lol I am done with this crap. Stay on topic dude.

i dont give a poo about your knee...LOL

try to stay on topic

 Damn. What did you do with those goalposts. You keep changing the narrative. And name the play, besides the one in ATL, where he got hurt on a zone read around the LOS. What 1st downs do we say...we’ll pick that up later. Sure is easy in theory.

  People like who? You’re the one who wants to just run him into the ground, NOW, and not worry about the future. “While he can” as you said. But we want to “replace” him and you don’t? Ok....sure.

  I want a good team around him for 10 years. Not one. What happens in 4-5 years when the talent around him sux because we went all-in for one season?

they're unnecessary and they just add to the number of hits he's taken. iirc he's taken more hits since 2013 than any other quarterback. idk seems relevant

found this from 2017:

300 more hits than the next nearest qb! no big deal though right? no point in trying to, idk, limit that????

you people lol

How many games has he missed compared to the others on that list? Wilson, who is second with one less season has never missed a game. You got anything else to help me prove my point?

i've voiced my skepticism that they'll receive two 2nd round picks. adam schefter did the same today, reporting that they're holding firm at one 2nd round pick. "rental" is debatable and you're leaning on that without considering the fact that yes, we could offer him an extension and he could take it. you're arguing in bad faith because you think it bolsters your argument. i can see through it. you can stop now.

i care about winning every year. im uninterested in maximizing the number of "pretty good" years.

btw what has clutching draft picks rather than moving on known superstars like thomas and mack done for this franchise? we still dont have back to back winning seasons and we have wasted years of cam's career. but oh no we cant move a 2nd for a hall of fame safety. that pick might turn into...uh...something better, i guess?

Why hasn’t his former DC, who has lost both Safeties, thrown those picks at SEA? They are getting thrashed but yet nothing. If it’s such an easy choice, why hasn’t any other team done it? Maybe because this isn’t a video game.

if he's not missing time for major injuries then he's getting more opportunities for wear and tear to accumulate. i've even said that his size has protected him from major impact injuries. you're adding nothing new here. trust me, im not proving your "point"

 Yet you posted that as some sort of definitive proof of your point. Along with another condescending “you people”. 

Move them posts....

no one does it until someone does it. same "this isn't a video game" boomer bullshit was being tossed around before mack got traded. try again.

 Please don’t tell me you actually wanted to trade for Mack. That explains soooo much. 

  Give me a little insight as to how we were supposed to do that and pay for it. I assume you had a plan.

Falcons seems desperate if they lose today, I could see them panicking and trading two 2nd round picks for Earl. Which would suck for us.

Why? They're 1-3 and we already played them once. TB is imploding as per usual and the Saints offense is having all sorts of problems. Nawlins is the only team I'm worried about in the South. Carolina is hands down better than Atlanta and TB.

Bruh you too confident. The Falcons could easily be 3-1. They lost 2 close games. You can't say we are hands down better than them when they already beat our ass.

Chill out my guy, it's a long season.

    We have that most unique athlete to ever play the QB position. But let's rein hm in, because, you know, he just MIGHT get hurt.

 

    And while we are at it. Let's throw future assets at a 30 yr old safety, who may not even be here next year. 

 

    Let's limit him for the future, but throw away some valuable future resources. That's some backwards double whammy schmitt right there.

[SOJA]

I'd trade them one second and one future fourth. No more and I'd want a guarantee Earl was going to sign an extension here

 

Our defense would be filthy

    Now that I might be talked into. Who knows, maybe he would be willing to hang around. We defiantly would be trending upwards. 

 

    Alas, we shall never know.

the point that hits in the nfl damage the bodies of players? that maybe it's a big fuging red flag that as of march 2017 cam had accumulated 300 more hits than the next nearest quarterback?

what are you even trying to do here lol

that's pretty rich coming from you. want to talk about how cam has "never" been injured on a designed run? lol

Not to the point you mortgage your teams future by overpaying to win one year. You really think that anyone in this discussion doesn’t recognize what a pounding RBs take? The point is Cam is only taking 3-5 a game from this. Most like any QB, are in the pocket or scrambling. Something that has proven to be even more dangerous. 

You’re using it as a reason to just go for it without concern for the future. And then tell us we want his replacement here. Why don’t you explain that one?
