I was wrong about CMC

Injury prone which is why we traded him in the first place. I wouldn’t take him back, sadly I think his best days are behind him

I agree that sadly his best days are behind him. I always loved the way he ran when he was here, giving it all every second he was on the field.

This is why you don't overpay RBs.

 

Low shelf life and not much impact unless they are surrounded by a great roster.

 

Saquan was nothing in NY. The moment he got on a good roster his talent become more noticeable. He's now in the MVP conversation just like CMC.

 

 

That is why I am glad the Panthers drafted Brooks in the 2nd round, which will help extend Hubbard's career

Not much impact in Carolina because we were on a downswing. When he started for SF they were 27-10 including a SB and NFC Championship appearance. When he didn’t start, they are 7-9.

I won’t disagree on the second contract but like Barkley after he got hurt, I wouldn’t be surprised if CMC has a solid year next year. 300-400+ touches a couple years in a row is typically not good for the following season.

so...I dont mean for this to come off harsh, but what the heck are you talking about ? Saquon came into the league with a poor Giants offensive line, Quarterback play and was able to overcome that for many years, injuries not withstanding.

He was nothing as in the team was nothing. Sorry for the confusion.

CMC will never be able to make if as a slot WR in the NFL. It literally removes almost every single advantage he has.

This is one of the most insane things the Huddle has ever been fixated on.

I think if he could he would have a long time ago. It would have been the better path professionally.

He had 339 touches last year and 329 touches in 2022.

He also came out of college with a record number of touches.

He's simply got a ton of miles on him and he'll be 29 next summer. Eventually it all adds up and that wall is there waiting for every RB.

Madden curse. At this point I have no clue why players want to put their picture on the cover. They know the bad karma that comes from it

Mahomes won the SB on the cover of Madden and McCaffery's been injured nearly every year of his career

Rivera did him in.  We would be up late when the game was in hand and Rivera would run him over and over again.  I remember telling my wife that he was going to end up injured and wondering what the hell was Rivera doing.  Nobody's body can take that much of a beating and last.  I can see him move into coaching one day.  Very high football IQ.

If CMC is overworked, it’s his own doing because he never wants to come off the field

Maybe as a RB, but I always said that when his RB days are behind him, he’s going to turn into a great slot WR and stick around in the league well into his mid 30’s

I don't understand why someone hasnt converted him already to a slot WR. You could see what was about to happen to him from a mile away when San Fran started the process of running him into the ground. He would make one hell of a good slot and if he can make a comeback from this should be put in that position the rest of his career.
