It helps if you've got other players you can complement him with. Then you can use him to draw attention away.

...

That is unless you have those players but don't have coaches smart enough to know how to use them.

CMC made this offense predictable. I am really interested in seeing what happens when he isn't the focal point.

When is the last time he had a 50+yard run? I'll save you the Google search, it's been 3 years.

When's the last time he had holes you cam drive a truck through?

Let's the last time we had a decent line and serviceable QB he had

40+ yd off tackle td

84 yd up gut td

76 yd up gut td

58 yd up gut td

I'm probably forgetting some that year.

We don't have a home run hitter anymore

He is gone now the past is the past.... Today was the best blocking we have seen in years though.

Same thing. Our entire offense was run through CMC by coaches design. They finally had to do something different because they had no choice. 

Pretty much.  Really interested to see how Shanahan uses him with Deebo and Kittle.  I mean, that's a fun group to have an offense with, and you don't need to run it through any of them explicitly either.  We just did it all so wrong with Rhule.  Turner was a bit better in 17-18 but still not my favorite.  Still though, they used Samuel, Moore, CMC, it was a more complete offense.  And it made Kyle Allen look good.  It wasn't some forced jamboree through one guy that Rhule did.

He doesn't have the same burst he used to have. RB's have a short shelf life and injuries have taken their toll. He's still a great player but he's not a "home run hitter" anymore either. Moving on from him was 100% the correct move given what we got in return. If you're hanging your hat on plays from three years ago idk what to tell you.

We didnt have a home run hitter with him, he is not the same guy he was a few years ago. 

We got the best possible outcome with CMC, we got something of value for him before his value is completely diminished, thats what smart teams do.

The difference was replacing Elf with Bozeman. He had the communication and pre snap calls on the OL working better than Elf could ever hope to do. Bozeman has the OL to work with and makes the job on the QB and RB so much easier. PJ and the RBs were able to be patient all game long.

CMC would have owned this game with Bozeman at center and PJ at QB.

Not having Robby getting targets was a huge reason for improvement in play production in the passing game too.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
