Coaches Stop CMC

[RevJ]

Been a horrible year but many of us stay engaged to watch CMC become the 3rd 1,000/1,000 player.

4th quarter, only 67 yards short.  Colts have no solution for CMC as an out of backfield receiver.  But wait, Fewell and the coaches can stop him. How do you take him out while he is on a roll?

67 yards short - which is more than his per game average. I bet next week he gets to 999 and Fewell benches him again. 

[Mr. Scot]

Watch them hold him out of the last game.

the worst thing about that is... I kind of understand the logic... his load had been crazy.

Which is why it was important to get him some more this game so we can rest him if needed for half of next game, once he hits the record.

If they do that I’m personally writing a scathing letter to Tepper on his ineptness and utter lack of understand the one small victory panthers fans can get this season.

i bet if we hold him out of the last game, we'd probably fug around and win the game somehow and fug up our draft position as well

Yep. Get him down to about 30 or 40 yards; especially with the Colts playing a relaxed defense at that point in the game, and have him get the record in the first half next week, while sitting him and the other starters to start the 2nd half. Could’ve had him go out to a standing ovation, too.

Now, it’s going to be sweating bullets trying to get him the record. We don’t even know if Grier will be able to get him the ball next week

only a loser would care about a record on a 5-11 team, and that goes for cmc and whatever teammates want it for him too.

[RevJ]

So, I am imagining Tepper blowing up at the two punt return TD.

He gets word to Fewell to please @&%$$#^% stop somebody.

Fewell takes out CMC.

I'll always be happy when any Panthers player has a chance to hit the record books for something positive.  If that makes me a loser, I don't give a poo.  I would rather win than have records, but if I can't hve a winning team to root for, at least I can root for CMC.

They want him to get the record at home. Once you get < 100 to go against a team playing soft D he can break that on one busted play.

[LinvilleGorge]

With the Colts just playing off coverage, we could've probably gotten CMC an easy 30-40 cheap garbage time yards on that last drive.

Hell, it wouldn't have surprised me if the Colts basically laid down for him like Favre did for Strahan. They have nothing to play for either and everyone in the league knows CMC has played his ass off for this sorry team this season and deserves this.
