They will continue to do what they have all season unless stew gets injured or has problem with ball security multiple times a game (i.e. Falcons game)

Its frustrating to watch them continue to keep their head in the sand and not feed the hot hand. McCaffrey ended the day with over 8 yards a carry and they only gave Cap 1 chance to run while stewart is either getting stoned at the line or running for very minimal gains. He has no elusiveness left and not much speed. He can hit obvious big holes as was shown in the Miami game but he can't create jack poo on his own and thats a problem with a below average run blocking oline like ours.  

I call bullshit that McCaffreys not an every down back. He's gotten 15 carries only once in the whole season and other dudes that put the team on their back running get 20 or 25 on a very regular basis. Running back by committee is killing both his and stewarts rythm.

True, you just wouldn't want to bang him up / tire him out and diminish his relative effectiveness in the passing game, though. 

Well smaller guys like Faulk and Westbrook  could run And catch with multiple touches. Cmc is a grown man.

Why do people keep bringing this up without mentioning the fact that the majority of the carries were clock killing carries.  Almost any back is going to suffer when you are running and the opposing defense knows you are running.  This was almost the entire 4th quarter for Stew.

     Come on. Would 15 carries really be to much? I mean, we are not talking about 30 carries. I am sure CmC can handle the increased roll. Hellz, it should be something we need to do. Find out if he can do it. Or not?

    • CJ Stroud going to flame out if he doesn't watch out..
    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
