C J Anderson

[Paa Langfart]

Why is he in RR 's doghouse?  It makes no sense to pound your number 1 RB into raw meat with the lead we had .

[LinvilleGorge]

My only real gripe today was that we had CMC out there late with the game decided taking unnecessary hits. CJ is one of the highest paid backup RBs in the league. Let him take those hits and save CMC.

Agree 100%

That is the point of this thread.  I don't understand why late in a game we have won we pound our starter.

god do we need to do this every week?

Seriously, the Broncos chose NOT to bring him back. Congratulations to him on the 1000 seasons but he is not nearly the same weapon that CMC is and does not open an offense up. He's nice I'm not talking poo about him I'm talking poo about the people that are whining about his carries while Cam Newton continually shows you that this is a passing team and CMC opens the offense up when he's on the field, CJ Anderson is just a runningback. 

Also, on his one carry, I couldn't help thinking "had that been CMC/Samuel/Moore, I think it's a big gainer instead of 6 yards"

He could very well be used more down the road once defenses forget about him but when the offense is starting to feel like it's building here.... SO WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING ABOUT CJ ANDERSON...?

seriously get with the program. We're a passing team. Cam Newton is on another level and we have THREE weapons that we can give carries to, plus Cam is the best running QB of all time. That's where CJ Anderson is. Behind very versatile players and a HOFer running QB.

They're not "complaining about CJ Anderson".

They're asking why our starting running back was still in the game taking hits when we had a comfortable lead.

It's a valid question.

[SpeedOFLight]

I was kind of wondering that as well. No need to take those hard hits while running up the gut of the defense. That’s when you put in your bruiser to handle that.

What the hell is this rant?

mcaffrey should not have been running into a wall of ravens 4 times in a row at the end of the game, risking injury, when we had the game wrapped up. It was fuging stupid.

[mc52beast]

Makes no sense to keep him in the game when it’s over. Those hits are going to take their toll towards the end of the season when we play the Aints twice

[bigjohn]

I see your point, but if we ran CJ and had a 3 and out some of the same guys here would have complained about us taking our foot off the gas.

[Manther]

After the blatant and dangerous looking facemask by the baltimore fug, I would have pulled him.  Then went for 8 instead of 3.
