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.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
