Anderson wasn't good enough for Carolina

If this is true....then he is as inept as Rivera. Even more disheartening.

Yeah so start the fire Norv chants as well.. 

I'm having a hard time finding the poo on Norv fan club for the actual mistakes Norv made..

Where is it??

[Mr. Scot]

So if the Rams win this game, we'll get to hear lots of talking heads discussing just how stupid we were to cut CJ Anderson.

And they'll be right.

Heck, the Fox NFL guys are talking about it already.

He came to training camp out of shape and probably lost us the Atlanta game. He was in most of our dog houses and rightfully so. Doesn’t mean he’s not a good player but didn’t fit our team all that well especially with McCaffrey playing great

Anderson was the guy who wore extra clothes in the middle of the heat just to make himself tougher.

And the notion that you let go of a great player just because you have another one is silly. Depth is one of the most difficult things to come by in the NFL. When you have it, you don't waste it, unless you're stupid.

Anderson is making our leadership look pretty stupid right now.

If McCaffrey and Anderson were given an even work load here, Anderson would have out played him.

Rivera and co. wanted to give McCaffrey a chance to be the feature back without looking over his shoulder.

why does it have to be a competition? they are teammates, they compliment each other perfectly....

Anderson was never out of shape.

They deserve every ounce of criticism on this one. It was a foolish move at the time. Anderson has been a dominant runner down the stretch here. 

[CarolinaNCSU]

Never made sense.  Anderson is the typical Rivera back, grind down defenses, get tough yards, etc.  Norv underused him, and Rivera didn't have the balls to question Norv I would think.

At what point are ppl going to figure out the CJ decision..

WAS A NORV DECISION!! Where are the Fire Norv threads.. 

 

I know you want to blame Ron for everything.. But reality is Norv made all decisions on the offensive side of the ball this year.. NOT Ron.. CJ didn't get playing time because Norv couldn't figure it out.. Cj got let go because Norv didn't want him anymore..

Ron, Norv it doesn't matter. The entire staff should have been poo canned this offseason. Nothing is going to change until Tepper cleans house and brings in his own GM and coach.

Making the Panthers look like absolute fools...

[MasterAwesome]

Yeah...cause our running game is what held us back this year....? Why does this matter??? McCaffrey was great as our featured back. Do you really think Anderson would’ve helped our team (with all its holes) win more games this year? Or are y’all actually complaining now in anticipation that 5 years down the line, CMC’s body might be broken and bruised because we overused him? That’s a tad bit premature...

Norv wanted to ride CMC like he rode Emmitt Smith.

Yeah, having two great players is never as good as having only one...

Now Blaming Rivera for not having the balls to question Norv decision is vaild..

But to be honest I didn't want Ron questioned Norv decision anyway.. I wanted him to stay away from the offensive game planning all together..
