21 carries and 9 receptions he led in both. We actually didn't give a single carry to another rb. And we still only beat the Jets by 5. To say our playcalling could use some versatility is not whining it's common sense. If the goal is to improve on 3rd place in our division then we should expect more in the following weeks.

There are things to like and I'm happy with the win but if we show up like we did in the second half against the Bucs or Saints it's going to get out of hand fast. Don't get the hapless Jets for 16 more weeks. If you look at the best offenses in the league they are not one dimensional yet Carolina seems to be hellbent on this even if it means running McCaffrey into the ground. CMC is not built to be what they are wanting to use him as which is a battering ram. It didn't work for long with Superman who was built like a specimen and it isn't going to work here. Sorry but that's the rub.

He needs to use something else in his playbook besides "plz save me CMC". This offense needs versatility. What baffles me is all the hob knobbing over Sean Payton and the Saints offense only for us to keep looking so one dimensional despite adding weapons in the offseason.

If you're going to use McCaffrey that's how you do it get him out in space. This up the gut play on repeat isn't it.

Wilson can sling it. He's going to have a hard time with the Jets but the arm talent can't be denied.

Unless our playcalling pulls a 180 I guess they're going to hold us under 20 after all. The Jets...

Do we just not trust our other backs at all? CMC is not Derrick Henry mix it up.

I'm past the point of laughter this needs to change he is a crutch for this staff. Why did we even bring in other weapons? We finally got on the board when we uncorked one to Robby what did we do giving CMC 25 touches in the half before that? Open the offense geez.

I laughed but you aren't wrong. Let's see what they do here.

I've tried to be fair to Sam today there's been positives and negatives. I think there is plenty to be happy about if our line holds and Sam builds better continuity with our weapons. But we need to use them all.

Well I mean that was kinda his thing when we brought him in. Jekyll/Hyde dynamic. Brady and the oline hasn't helped tho.

High throws gotta settle down.

Wilson taking a beating damn almost feel sorry for him. Our interior oline is iffy but Sam gotta be grinning a bit seeing this. Could be worse.

They have competition in that division but they are on the rise. It's less of a statement on Arizona and more surprise to see a team like the Titans getting pushed around early.

Texans beating up on the Jags and the Cardinals are thumping the Titans. Odd week one.

Sam bounced back from the fumble in a big way. Hats off to him. Playcalling has been much more decisive though and that's been huge for the offense.

Open up the offense with other weapons.. profit. What a concept. I got Robby in my fantasy

Did Teddy actually make Brady look better despite his own deficiencies? He at least got yards with his feet all we're doing now is trending toward another season of CMC leading the league in touches despite the additions of new weapons.

Kicking field goals instead of getting into the end zone. Meh.

Whether we win this game or not we need to shed all this college nonsense and be an nfl team and establish our identity. And no our identity is not the Carolina Christian McCaffrey's.

Uh fumbling at the goal line ain't typical unless the team being a joke against the Jets of all teams is a good thing.

Well.. the bad Darnold didn't take long to show up. Let's see how he bounces back.

Alright let's settle in. Will the real Joe Brady please stand up?

Some folks don't need to drink.
