I Have No More Excuses for Christian McCaffrey


Hoenheim

Recommended Posts

His stats through 7 games : 

Rushing : 

- 45 Attempts, 114 yards , 2.5 YPC

Receiving : 

- 44  Receptions, 329 yards, 7.5 AVG 

 

I'm not throwing him under the bus giving the circumstances of the team, but can anyone deny he's been a massive disappointment as a NFL running back. There were a lot of people whispering he wasn't big enough or strong enough to be a good NFL runner and so far is absolutely true. I've seen way too many times he's going down on first contact, getting dragged down by arm tackles, and getting rag-dolled by almost any NFL defender . Sure Shula isn't helping him and the oline has been ass at run blocking, but notice how Stewart managed to pop off a few good runs last game? McCaffrey, is stll getting stoned by the nearest defender. And as much as people keep saying shut up about Fournette and that he wouldn't fit our scheme, would he or Cook have been doing just as badly as McCaffrey is right now? 

Perhaps his somewhat saving grace is that he's been excellent catching the football . But how is drafting a decent slot WR worth it at the #8 spot in the draft? 

As of right now, it looks like we still don't have a good RB for the future. I don't think our oline is ever going to be good enough for tiny dude like McCaffrey to have much success running behind. 

 

I think its too much to ask for , for him to drastically change his weight and playing style to be a much better more well rounded running back that can bounce off some tackles and not get pushed around so much at the LOS. I'm by no means a troll, and long time Panther fan, but I'm just frustrated that the highest draft pick we've had since Luke and Cam has been a horrible dissapointment this far. I want him to improve, and I want the team to give him better circumstances to operate in. But you all know Shula/Rivera not going anywhere during the season, and the oline's not going to improve much with the Kalil brothers constantly getting injured and Turner going down, McCaffreys blocking is going to get worse .

When his blood vessel almost burst getting 10 reps on the bench at the combine I didn’t think there was any way he’d be a top 20 much less top 10 pick.  To my horror he was our pick but I came around with the preseason hype.

I hope like hell we’re both wrong for many reasons.  Whiffing on a top 10 pick at this point would simply be catastrophic.

He was good pick when Olsen returns his production will be 3x better. 

We need a dual threat TE that can block and pull LBs /Safetys away from line of scrimmage. This will opens up the running lanes and underneath stuff for CMC.

I didn't want us to draft CMC, but the Panthers coaches had a plan. They believed that our o-line would open rushing lanes and that CMC would squirt though and make plays. One problem. Our o-line can't open rushing lanes against teams with good/great d-lines. So CMC is worse than useless on this team as far as rushing between the tackles is concerned. He might as well weigh 95 pounds because he can't push a muddled mess, and he's terrible after contact in a pile of humanity.

There is a solution. Draft road grating offensive linemen who can open rushing lanes in the next draft. If there are not enough in the draft, then buy them in FA.

329 yards. I mean he'd be our 4th most productive receiver last season if the season ended now.

Get the run blocking fixed up and maybe Jonathan Stewart and Christian McCaffrey will finally start producing as runners. Runningbacks can't block for themselves, and our run blocking has been very bad.

Yes but the explosive plays are lacking since there is no other real threat on field that demands respect all the damn time to draw defenders , Olsen is sorely missed!

While I agree Olsen is missed you might be the dumbest guy on the internet, either you legitimately know little about football or are an alt troll

Y'all realize this offense would literally die and flop winless if we didn't have mccaffrey and what he does to defenses. 

That’s a very narrow minded and/or homeristic take-given positional value and the ability to pick up other options elsewhere.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
