"McCaffrey can't run in between the Tackles"

[C47]

USC was a top 30 rushing Defense last year. They were one of the four top 30 units That Stanford faced, compared to the three that Fournette and LSU faced.

Are you in the wrong place? You're not supposed to do research here.

You're supposed to say "SEC offenses kind of suck because the defenses are elitez and pac12 only has good offense bc they're soft."

But yeah Stanford has been playing big boy power football for a while and while I wouldn't put McCafery in for goal line I think he has amazing vision and quickness to run inside effectively.

His speed seems average compared to other NFL Rbs. 

You are apparently watching a different NFL than I am.

He's got plenty of talent and vision, and I don't think that has ever been in question. But as has been pointed out, it may not translate well into the NFL. He reminds me a lot of Reggie Bush. Explosive and capable of making a 2 yard gap become a 40+ yard gain, but in the NFL you simply don't have as much space due to faster defenses who don't tend to give up those nice lanes you see in college (unless you have the Cowboys OL). If used as a scat back, he'll be very effective in a Darren Sproles-type role, but he's not a guy you line up and hand off to 15-20 times in the NFL. He's a taller version of Fozzy, and we know what happens when Fozzy either doesn't have a nice hole inside or an edge sealed to run to...he gets put down hard. Fozzy has the same open field ability. That being said, he's probably got better vision than Fozzy from the backfield on handoffs.

Or maybe we could look deeper into those numbers? 

The 3 teams LF faced were #1,#4, and #21. With another at 36. An avg. of 15.

The 4 teams CM faced were #11, #26, #27 and #28. An avg. of 23. 

 And when USC faced an SEC offense, things did go to well for them.

Numbers can be fun when you sway them to only tell what you want them to.
