Yeah that would be why it may not be a possibility. RBs tend to break after a historic year like he had in that run.

Running backs in general are at a higher risk for injury than every other position on the field. It’s why we need to continue to rest him appropriately and utilize him in a hybrid WR role. He has better hands than pretty much everyone on the team.

CMC is the most wasted player in franchise history up with cam. Every time he is put in the slot or route he burns anyone covering him. The fact he is used like a bowling ball is truly mind blowing.

All true but that should have happened years ago thus my expectations. RB that have a career and record type year that he had usually fall into ruin soon after. It's not just the millage but how fast they add it on in a short span that can speed that up. He would need to prove the exception which would be great just not expected by me at this point.

But he wants to be a RB lol.

Yeah we could have made that guys career twice as long and productive but nope, just run him like the freak he is until he is nothing more than a workout master sitting on IR.

A testament of toughness. This fan base doesn’t deserve the kid. Hope he stunts on all  you hoes this season. 

I have a feeling he indeed will be stunting on all these hos all season long.  Hes due for a healthy, monster year this season.  Its not like hes had any major, surgery requiring injuries like an ACL or a torn Achilles or anything...its just been a bunch of nagging bullshit.  And I have a feeling that had we been in the hunt down the stretch these past 2 seasons, we would have seen him play more.

Yeah that’s the “catch 22” (no pun intended). He’s great bc he’s a natural talent that works hard, but he pushes his body to the limit and it breaks

I expect he will for a few games. He's always been tough, just not tough enough to keep from getting hurt.

Well hes a REALLY GOOD RB too...so you would kinda be chopping yourself off at the knees if you just made him a WR strictly.  However I could see some kinda Deebo situation, only reverse where instead of being a "Wide Back", hes a "Running Receiver".  Those quick hitters he gets almost every game right up the gut are too valuable to completely take away.  IDK....its a tough situation to be in.  Fingers crossed he stays completely healthy this year and we tear teams up on offense.  We definitely have the pieces right now to make it happen.

This... Never has I think it was frank who tried to compare him to Gurley whose knees were twine coming into the NFL.... 

CMC hasn't had any injuries that sap a players ability.

Someone really tried to compare CMC to Gurley lol?  TG's knee was bone on bone when he was at UGA.  Thats totally absurd.

      They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
