Can someone PLEASE, PLEASE give me a definitive reason WHY CAP isn't getting more touches??? I realize we have only a small sample size, but the opportunities he has gotten he's more than made the most of. He has fresh legs and size. And he's shown vast improvement this year. Do the coaches know something we don't?? Is he fumble prone, injury prone?? Does he have a bad attitude and coaches don't like him?? I just don't get it. Our run game needs all the help it can get. Heck, he can't be any worse than Stew is right now. The plays I've seen CAP is cutting on a dime.....Why not give him more touches and see what happens?? I don't see a downside to this.......Suggestions???

Because Rivera loves Jonathan Stewart 

Hey, I get that coaches are loyal to perennial starters......But at what point do you look at stats and film and say, you know what.....The season is on the line, why not TRY to find an X factor???

It will take an injury before CAP starts over Stewart. And the bad thing is that even if CAP does great, he will immediately go back to the bench when Stewart is healthy again. It's time to let go, Ron

Great example.....You can tell that he is running hungry. He's running with explosiveness and has something to prove....Which is greatly lacking in run game. I really am puzzled with this one. I would think that even a JV high school coach would see this.

I think Explosiveness is the key, the way he is able to accelerate and hit the holes before defenders can fill the gap will lead to resurgence of the power run game.

CMC & CAP can make hell of duo

And in that GIF note how he protects the ball just before contact is made with him. Solid form, great vision and explosiveness.....I just don't understand. Maybe in practice he's a totally different runner, and they just don't have confidence in him....Although I seriously doubt it.

He proved it last year stepping in for the Bucs game in regular season., Coaches gotta let go of the Veteran loyalty. 

J-Stew would still play an important role it's not like he would totally obsolete.

Stews hard to stop on those goalline leaps. Id like to see CAP as the guy between the 20s though. CMC should be our back on passing downs and in the slot on all other plays when applicable.

this is such basic logic but our pro coaches cant even see this much is a fugin shame

      Bust alert - Eight NFL players running out of time to prove themselves entering 2026 season

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Bryce has improved each season, fwiw, statistically.  His slope is rising.  (Not to say I am high on him--I am not, but I have not given up on him--nor have I given up on XL, but damn he pisses me off)  CJ's slope is descending.   I was never a Penix fan.  Never, I say!

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      That is definitely the down side of all this--on paper, I would offer up a second rounder for him if he passed my interviews.  He has already gone through (seriously?) a treatment program for gambling addiction.  I just see him as a first round talent that we could get with a second rounder.  If I liked Bryce and felt good about paying him $50m per, I would not touch Sorsby.  If Bryce regresses or stays the same--he is going to expect to be paid.  Sorsby, in my view, has a better long-term future as an NFL QB.  He is big, mobile, has good arm strength, and makes wise decisions (on the field) with the football.  He is a great dual threat, RPO QB.   I think he is a perfect solution for the backup qb position and insurance for Bryce should he get injured or suck.  Pickett?  King?  yikes.

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Hard to say--they are very unpredictable--this article came out last night---after our comments:  (ESPN)   How has the NFL approached NCAA players with gambling violations in the past? David Purdum, sports betting reporter: Quarterback Hunter Dekkers and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte were found to have committed gambling violations while playing college football, and both were allowed to pursue NFL careers. Dekkers was the projected starting quarterback at Iowa State but was ruled ineligible ahead of the 2023 season after an investigation found he had bet on at least one game involving the Cyclones (among other wagers that violated NCAA bylaws). The bet was just $15 on Iowa State to beat Oklahoma State in a 2021 game in which he did not play, but it led to the end of his Division I career. He played one season at Iowa Western Community College in 2024 before signing with the Saints as an undrafted free agent, and he spent last season on the practice squad. Boutte was arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in January 2024 on charges of underage betting while at LSU. The arrest came roughly eight months after he had been drafted in Round 6 by the Patriots, and the charges were ultimately dropped. According to police, Boutte placed more than 8,900 wagers from April 2022 to May 2023, including betting on at least 17 college football games -- at least six of which involved LSU during that span. The NFL did not discipline Boutte.
