Norv Turner can turn Christian McCaffrey into Panthers’ ‘premiere back’

Norv's system feeds 2 RBs and 2 receivers in timing patterns. The 3rd RB option is an outlet/extra receiver and a 3rd receiver is a one on one match up outlet.

Norv scheme's to get the key/reliable players open. Everyone else is a role player.

You are all trying to figure out who the RBs are going to be. The 3 players who will be getting the carries are already on the team. McCaffrey, Cam and Fozzy. Turner was the one who liked Fozzy with the Browns in 2013. If Stewart stays, he will be a role player in 2018.

Norv likes the small tough backs in his system and he feeds them 200-300 carries easy. McCaffrey will be no different.

Of the 26 seasons Norv has spent in the NFL as an OC or Head Coach, only 6 have been with big RBs. 

He gave Terry Allen, Emmitt Smith and LaDainian Tomlinson 400 touches for a season as the feature back. Norv did the same thing for 2006 with Frank Gore in his second season with the 49ers and turned him into a pro bowler that year. That was Frank Gore's best career season and only under Norv.

I expect McCaffrey to touch the ball 350-400 times next season under Norv.

mccaffrey is at least 10 lbs lighter than all those people . Maybe around the same height but no where near as much muscle mass or power running game

LaDainian Tomlinson just made my day.  I am excited to see this offense.

And for those who say Cam does not fit what Turner does....

Terry Allen 204 cmc will play at about 210 to 215 next year which is in Marshall fault lessen mccoy size He can easily get 20 touches with 5 catches and 15 carries

Fozzy will absolutely not be a featured runner and CMC won’t get close to 400 touches.

it might even be less a factor of the weight/muscle than it is the style that mccaffrey plays with. He has the body of a WR and kinda plays like one in terms of not being able to get through contact well and relying almost 100% on speed and elusiveness. 

who really knows whatll happen though, especially with a new owner , new oc, there can be alot of changes with the roster/gameplan/coaching as well as cmc possibly changing his body/playstyle soem. Will be very interesting what the team is looking like in July/August . Very possibly 2 RB will be cut, I'm guessing cap and fozzy, and bring back stew on a cheaper deal if he agrees to it. and draft a powerback.
