Not sure what this thread is for... but if its for what I think its for, there is no way CJ Anderson is coming back to this sinking ship.

You mean he won't want to ride the pine through our entire 0-16 season?

Dude keeps getting released from teams. I wonder why.....

[Black&BlueBubba]

I have to imagine he is not the best teammate when not getting the ball.

McVay made geoff the highest paid QB and CJ look like a all-pro during the playoffs.

He was trash in the conference championship and Super Bowl.

His pass protection was bad this year per the Lions fans.  But it sounds like the fan base still liked him. 

Have never heard a player from any of his teams say a bad word. 

Some players are just journeymen and are treated as rentals.

My guess would be he's looking for a bigger role.

Obviously, that's not gonna happen here because we don't believe in backup runningbacks.

Tell me you wouldn't have liked to have had Anderson around for that final goal line play last Thursday though.

Not really.

Our O Line was getting pushed backwards.  I don't care if you've got vintage Beast Mode back there, you've got to at least hold the point of attack.  When the defense is getting the push that the Bucs had, it just doesn't matter.

I disagree but it's a moot point.

Can agree that Tampa  was absolutely selling out to stop the run. Person pointed out that nobody got fooled after Newton went out to the right. Had just one guy bitten on the misdirection, McCaffrey could have had a cutback lane.

And of course, there's the fact that no matter who else we do have, we're not going to use them anyway.
