"No one can cover Christian McCaffrey 1 on 1"

Not really. That was true the first three weeks. Since then they treat him like a typical scat back. He is not getting any extra attention at all. 

People can take up for Gettlemen all they want, but he did Draft Rex Burkhead at 8.  We Drafted Rex Burkhead at 8th in the First Round of the 2017 Draft.  Not Lenoard Fournette, Rex freaking Burkhead.

Fournette was off the board. He was their #1 choice but it didn't work out. How is that relevant?

Because, it would've been better just to Trade up at this point.  Everyone knew Fournette would be the real deal, especially in Shula's anemic Offense.

I'm so glad Fournette didn't fall to us because seeing us choose CMC over him would have hurt.

What we all feared is coming to pass, and that's Shula doesn't know how to use this guy.    On the Patriots, CMC is doing work, for instance.     At this point we should have traded down, picked up OJ Howard for this offense, and picked up extra picks in the draft for secondary help and whatnot.   

I'm not really blaming CMC for anything honestly.

I warned everyone about drafting Mccaffrey, but nobody wanted to listen. Never draft a Stanford RB, complete system players.

 

He already lost PR duties to Clay, and I’m kind of hesitant about  him playing slot, cause a good nickel corner could lock him up  

I disagree.  Nickel DBs ain’t covering him.

I like CMC but man...6 weeks into the season it sure would be nice to have Lattimore, Garrett Bolles, Hooker, or OJ Howard. I hope this is just a growing pain. No one on offense aside from Cam is really balling out. That thought is keeping my hopes up for CMC.

EDIT: Cam isn't really balling out, either, aside from like 2 games.

Lattimore was higher on the board than CMC, but his rumored hamstring issues last minute caused him to drop. 

I'm not saying you're wrong but hamstring issues are a terrible reason not to draft someone. Look at Odell

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
