Let Us Take a Moment to Appreciate CMC

This dude is currently #2 in rushing yards (318) and yards from scrimmage (450) behind only Dalvin Cook (375 rushing, 454 total) , who coincidentally some people on this board were harping on us to get as well in the 2017 draft.

I've been saying the only thing he's been missing from his game is those break away home run TD plays and he showed a little hint of it in the 2017 WC playoff game vs the Saints. He's had a few times rushing where he had long rushes but got tripped up from behind several times, but he actually broke this one all the way and I was screaming my head off in my living room.

The most remarkable things I'm noticing is : this dude stays healthy, doesn't fumble, he's gotten way stronger from his first couple seasons, his YPC is rising every season and so are pretty much all of his stats in general. (3.7 rookie year, 5.0 2nd year, 5.4 this year per carry). Already 3500 yards from scrimmage and 23 total TDs not even 1/4 through his 3rd season.

IMO this last game has made me realize the team is way more succesful when CMC ISNT catching a million passes per game, when the balls being spread out. I could see him pilling up a lot more rushing yards this year but his receiving going down to 400-600, and I don't mind that at all.

Dalvin is a stud when he's healthy.

Key words being "when he's healthy". He'll get dinged up eventually. 

But I agree, CMC is a stud to begin with.

I actually think his best trait is his field vision.

The ability to see the field and pick his spots was what made Emmitt Smith great more so then his physical talents. I believe that's going to be true of McCaffrey as well.


Speaking of his vision, check out how far in advance CMC makes the cut that sets up the touchdown. He sets up the defender at least seven yards in advance. The defender isn’t even on the screen yet.

Take away that long run yesterday and he averaged only 3.3 yds. per carry on the ground.  He's more valuable catching poo passes out of the backfield.

Yah we should switch him to slot receiver and find a real rb lol.  Btw long runs count too

But you can't, bc he did. You fuggin reprobate. Let's us enjoy our little wins and get the heck off the board if you ain't about that life.

 

Also, factoring in every touch Including receptions without the big run he averaged well over 5 yards per touch.

 

You tard.

      I don't think Rodgers but probably not for the political reasons I bet a lot of posters are motivated by. I just think he is not the QB for the Panthers, at all.

      It wasn't great but  the 2022 NYG won 9 of 16 games plus a playoff game. He had a 92.5 passer rating. 15 pass TDs 3200 yards, 7 rushing TD, 700 yards 6 fumbles 3 lost.  His first season he had 18 fumbles lost 11. Wow.  Anyhow he had problems in 2023 with injuries and didn't win poo before tearing his ACL. This year, no Barkley, not good, but you know.... these ACLs take a while and it was right and he throws right so pushes off of it.  I agree it doesn't hurt to let that guy compete cheap. You don't hand him the job like with Bryce or NYG with him.  When I look at what we have been saddled with, he doesn't look worse and has the physical advantage. So I don't get the umbrage given our situation. This "No we won't settle for anything less that the best" attitude and then taking Bryce Young was pathetic and I think that attitude brought us to where we are. That's where that poo gets you. Away from Mayfield, away from Darnold, even away from PJ - just to replace them with an inferior PJ.  At the same time I am not really advocating for the guy just looking at it objectively. It could be another guy with the same story. And yes the odds of him getting it are low but the numbers and performance from 2022 are for sure better than we see with Bryce even after a season of major propping him up with better players around him. Take a look don't take a look he fails or he doesn't fail...   to instead sit here and be happier with what we have is bullshit.
