Just a little update thread for McCaffrey. 

76 rushes , 276 rushing yards , 3.5 yards per carry , longest run of 40 yards, 2 Rushing TDs, 24.4 rush yards per game average

59 receptions, 468 receiving yards, 7.9 yards per reception, longest reception of 37 yards, 3 receiving TDs, 42.5 receiving yards per game average

3 kick returns for 58 KR yards (avg. 19.3 yards per KR)

22 punt returns for 162 PR yards (avg. 7.4 yards per PR)

736 total yards from scrimmage , 956 total yards gained . 


Good? Bad? Obviously he's been blocking his ass off and taking attention away from other players, so its not all in the stats. But considering how badly the offense was stagnating for the 1st half of the season for the most part, he's done pretty solidly. And over the last 3 games, he is getting 5.6 yards per carry (In the same timespan : Jstew 3.6 yards per carry even with Miami game factored in). Against ATL and Jets, Stewart has averaged 1.8 Yards Per Carry and McCaffrey has averaged 5.8 yards per carry. I poo you not.

He hasn't produced many of the splash plays that I expected from him, but the guy is producing well for a rookie.

I have no idea why we haven't reduced Stew's role drastically. CMC and CAP should be seeing the majority of the action at RB IMO. Stew has had one good game all season long and that against a team that has utterly quit.

See Rivera, Ron.

It's trust. If you start on this team it's probably because the coaches trust you. Rookies usually have to earn trust and Stewart has been THE guy since Ron got here so it'll be very hard for Ron to trust a rookie over Stewart. That's all it is.

Lets say you have your very best friend you've known for a loooong time who has been through it all with you and they're going through a rough patch. Here comes a new person with the same interests but a different approach...would you up and dump your old friend right away? No.

This is what is going on. Ron trusts Stewie. The move will happen eventually but right now it wont.

It is hard to accurately place a value on having a guy like CMC that can get separation and is excellent at catching any catchable pass. I think we are lucky to have a guy like him on the team. Who did we go to on the 4th down play that we converted yesterday? CMC. The guy is so damn reliable of a pass catcher and to me that is tremendous value. I also think he has room to grow and improve his overall game. I am very thankful to have him on our team.

Still waiting for us to ride him in the run game. We need to actually give him the opportunity to develop between the tackles and let that aspect of the NFL slow down for him like it did for Le'Veon Bell who has a similar skillset and is dominating. McC has the speed, shiftiness and agility to go along with patience and vision to have success between the tackles AND outside the tackles, despite his size and lack of breaking tackles (though he has been better at that lately, with multiple broken tackles the past 3 games). Just need to let him get in a rhythm so he can be a threat as a runner and receiver. Right now not a single team views him as a threat as a runner, they are preparing for him as a receiver which makes it easier for the defense. If we could line him up in the backfield every play with the opposing defense having to prepare for him as a runner AND receiver it would tremendously improve our offense. And frankly he's a better runner than Stew right now and deserves the carries.

This is what happens when you run a business like a social circle, and goes a long way in explaining why this franchise has never had back-to-back winning seasons.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
