PFF: McCaffrey has been great this season

[TheSpecialJuan]

Now nine games into his sophomore season in the NFL, Carolina Panthersrunning back Christian McCaffrey is answering the league’s call for a modern, every-down bell-cow in the backfield. The 5-foot-11, 205-pound Stanford product doesn’t resemble the bell-cows of old (e.g., Steven Jackson, Shaun Alexander, Jamal Lewis, Deuce McCallister), and he’s proven he doesn’t have to carry the load for an offense.

Garnering 19.7 touches per game – a top-10 figure among all NFL backs – McCaffrey has totaled 1,018 yards from scrimmage, seven touchdowns and 41 first downs. He’s also averaged a 5.76 yards per touch and forced 0.19 missed tackles per touch, ranking sixth and eighth, respectively, among backs with 120-plus touches this season. And he’s done so with a high percentage of his total touches coming not as a runner, but as a receiver, which is a testament to the modern, pass-happy era.

Pretty sure Cmac has shut up almost all his critics from last season ( his rookie year FFS ).  Dude is a baller.  I can see him getting around 1800-1900 yards from scrimmage by seasons end.  Probably add on another 6-8 TD's.  Well worth the pick with how we are using him in this type of offense.  With Cam, they at times look nearly unstoppable together.

He's a real special talent in the mold of an LT or M Faulk. My only problem is our use of him when we have CJ on the bench during certain situations.

Yeah he’s a complete monster but having him play 100% of the snaps is just silly. CJ is capable as well, let McC rest a bit and pound CJ up the middle.

lmaoooooo Chris Manhertz is our top rated offensive player?

He's quietly having a very good season. Purely a blocking TE but he's developed very nicely for us.

Damn I don’t think I could have figured that out without paying for a pff subscription.

Hes been doing great so far. If I had to guess his final stats will be something like 1050 rushing 700 receiving

What I've been impressed with the most this season is he seems a lot more powerful and his running vision is a lot better, hes barely hesitating at all and just hitting holes, and carrying people for extra yardage. He's also churning out TDs consistently in the past few games.

I don't need PFF to tell me CMC has been playing great. I find their player ratings to be extremely hit or miss and the only time I'm even aware of them at this point is when they get cherry picked and posted on here either to be praised or mocked.
