McCaffery's pace


TN05

Recommended Posts

He's had a hot start compared to his extremely underwhelming start last year. I think a big part of that is many more touches and the Oline actually opening holes for him to run through. That and of course him gaining weight and bouncing of tackles . 

I think hes bound to have at least a few games where he's not going to be going off for 100 yards of total offense every time , for example  where we will get pitted up against defenses like Philadelphia who are almost impossible to run against 

The early signs look good but only time will tell. Would love to see him become the 3rd player ever to get 1000 yards rushing and 1000 receiving (other two : Marshall Faulk [1999 : 1381 rushing and 1048 receiving] and Roger Craig [1985: 1050 rushing , 1016 receiving] )

Another overall single season record to keep a lookout on. Chris Jonson's 2,509 yards total from scrimage in a single season [2009] )

He won't maintain it.  Give it a couple more weeks of film and people will scheme to stop him.  That's fine.

What matters is how we adjust to that.

People have already been scheming to stop him.  Was pretty clear watching the Cowboys he was their main focus.

Turner's been exploiting it.

I don’t think these numbers are sustainable and I actually hope CJ gets more touches because we want cmac to be as fresh aspossible if/when we make the playoffs. He’s getting a fugton of touches. 

I don't think they're necessarily unsustainable, but with that said I have a hard time seeing those kinds of numbers being produced.  And it's not that I think other teams will stop him (granted, they might) but for me it's more that Norv is gonna do what he needs to do on a weekly basis.  That might involve a heavy emphasis on McCaffrey or it might now.  I expect he'll adapt on a weekly basis to whatever he thinks is the best approach.

This, plus CMC is in his second season hes young if he was an older back I might buy into it.

    • XL I dont even think he gets a full season. He's almost in a moment to moment tryout, post training camp. If he does his 'jumping out of bounds' catch again, I think the team calls him an Uber. 
    • Kudos to the Knicks and their diehard, true fans. Like the Hornets, it wasn’t long ago that they were considered the laughing stock of the league with a trash owner (I guess Dolan has gotten a little better).    Loved seeing the energy in MSG. 
    • Yeah one big factor has been he is surprisingly quite durable. But the reality of that aspect is much of it boils down to plain dumb luck more often than not. Big guys get hurt smaller guys get hurt it happens across the league to anyone to varying degrees. The issue is we are staring down the barrel of a possible top 10 QB salary and Bryce Young is one of the least physically gifted starters in the league. That is not a shot at him it is simply a rational acknowledgment of circumstances. There is a legitimate question to be asked if his window as a starter in this league is smaller as a result because what is going to happen when those hits that he has previously popped right back up from with a smile on his face begin to accumulate as they do for every player that has been in this league? These are just things to consider.
