What Happens When Christian McCaffrey Faces A Normal NFL Linebacker?

How many of you guys actually played football before? These drills favor the offense. These are just drills. This is not real game football. Like we ALL know CMC is the best route runner in thee entire draft. He is literally the perfect slot WR. Temper your fandom

Says the guy who thinks Christian McCaffrey can't run between the tackles and is only a scatback.

If you played football or linebacker specifically you would also know that while these drills favor the offensive player given you have no help and there is no pressure on the quarterback to throw it right away, you also only have one assignment which is defend the pass. You know who it is going to be thrown to, you don't have to worry about a run and you can focus on the break and maybe even start backpedaling early. The fact he was beaten so badly is a testament to how shifty CMC is given the defender could easily figure out what was coming

Plus Wesley Woodyard graded out as one of the top LBs in coverage last year. 

It's ok to be excited. "The kid's got shake"

    • Said it last year as well and I’ll say again If we had drafted Stroud his 2023 season would’ve looked very similar to Young’s and I’m not sure he ever would’ve recovered. You saw some very concerning things last night as the game went on with footwork and pressure. The Texans have done a fantastic job of building around CJ and allowing for error given their defense. Last night was most likely a lot of people’s first time watching CJ this year. But once Slowik offense hit a wall so has CJ. Bobby Slowik absolutely cooked in 2023. A lot of open deep stuff for CJ which played to his strengths as he throws one hell of a pretty ball Its hasn’t been smooth sailing for CJ since that Bears game in 2024. 
    • Our biggest problem is that we’ve already spent a lot of resources at corner (horn), O-line (Hunt snd Icky - 1st round early pick), WR (XL and McMillan), and RB (Hubbard).  Because of injuries and FA and XL, we have to compound investment in those positions again. Not good.
    • It would be worth it. The entire line plays better when he’s in the game and I don’t see him getting worked game after game. I saw our old center Bozeman getting destroyed against the Patriots which was funny to see.
