McCaffery to IR (1 Viewer)

[jasonsw]

I told someone at work who does fantasy football that this will be the last productive high level season for McCaffrey due to his heavy use at Stanford and so far in Carolina. I was wrong.

Looks like the McCaffrey that we knew before 2020 is no more.

He can still be really really good but not if Carolina's going to have him touch the ball 30-40 times a game. You can't have your offense run entirely through one player, no matter how good they are.

You mean like the Vikings early in AP's career?

Well, AP was definitely an anomaly.

I was gonna say, "Yeah, but they also had these other couple guys," but they really only had Visanthe Shiancoe his first couple seasons, then Sidney Rice and Favre lol.

CM has certainly shown himself to be injury prone so far.

He accounts for too much of their offense. Dude is a great player who takes a ton of punishment and it’s been that way since he was drafted.

Chuba Hubbard is actually pretty good… he’s no CMC, but if the Panthers had a clue about CMAC, they would’ve been giving Hubbard more carries to keep McCaffery on the field more often.

I remember Hubba Bubba bubble gum too. Oh wait - let me get my eyeglasses.

RB's no matter how good or productive on the field definitely have a shelf life and why I advocate for letting RB's walk rather than give high dollar contracts.

Again proof better to move on from a player a year too early than keep a year too long.

I don't think that's being fair to him, especially when taken in context. It's been said before but Carolina seems to have little interest in managing his touches, hea being run into the ground. And for what? It's not like the team has been competitive lately.

In most cases I agree, but for the “special” RBs, you gotta keep them through their prime. Kamara and CMAC are both “special” but the Panthers put too much usage on McCaffery and they’re grinding him into the ground.

It reminds me of how Haslett did Deuce McAllister.

That’s funny... Because Kamara has more touches than him, but CMC has close to 1000+ more snaps than Kamara is wild.

Well, they finally ran him into the ground. Surprised it took this long, to tell the truth.

It's a shame. The guy is a special talent. Sad what happens to these young RBs. Most of them never see a second contract unless they're good at special teams.

FTR… I would LOVE to see the Panthers deem CMAC “injury prone” and let him walk in the next few years, and then him end up on the Saints as a RB/WR hybrid with AK41!!!!!

Goodell would suspend CSP for using cheat codes
