Sick of seeing CJ Anderson on the bench in the goal line

Recommended Posts

Look, I love CMC, but goal line offense is Anderson's wheelhouse - McCaffery has no rushing touchdowns this year. Put him behind Armah and not only is the run more viable, the pass also becomes harder to defend since they have to focus on Anderson up the middle.

I’m honestly surprised he’s not pissed, he deserves more touches at least 10-14 a game. That’s the thing about running this slow pace offense(until it’s a absolute must), we got talented guys not getting enough snaps 

If I was him I might not go as far as to demand a trade but I would definitely be asking the Panthers to at least call around prior to the deadline. 

I kinda feel for CJ. I'm sure he was told he was going to to have a significant role in this offense and he's pretty much having his career tanked. He might be looked at as a veteran minimum type guy after this year if this trend continues.

Everyone should come to grips that CJ is CMCs back up, and that’s it

I think everyone understands that. Hell, it's exactly what I was trying to tell everyone in the offseason when people were trying to say that CJ might be the bellcow. But, CJ has 17 touches through 6 games. Hes on track for under 50 touches on the year. That's generally #3 RB territory. That's definitely unexpected for one of the higher paid #2 RBs in the NFL.

I’d like to see at least a 85/15 snap distribution between CMC and CJ just so we don’t wear CMC out.

I get why his snaps would be low the past two games since we were playing feom behind the majority of the game and CMC is one of our best receivers, but yeah, when we're in the mode of running the ball I'd like to see him taking some more of those snaps for the exact reason you stated.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
