Roaring Riot has confirmed that he didn't request or demand it.

  Like I said, I assumed common sense. And as you said, we have many morons who made this decision. It would have been much easier at just one guy to fire in JANUARY. This is Matt Kalil signing ignorant. I don’t care about the money. There is no logical reason. None. It’s like throwing away your car insurance after you already paid for it. 

  This isn’t about evaluating a player. This is screwing up a situation when it was completely unnecessary. For no benefit.

You have got to be fuging kidding me.

 

We are working out RBs now and looking to sign one.......

 

[LinvilleGorge]

Baffling. I wish him nothing but the best. No clue why we didn't use him even on late game, running out the clock type situations.

This really has to come down to the staff wanting to get CAP onto the field. Maybe they have discovered that CAP can do what CJ did, other than drop a ball for an INT.

If it came out that CJ Anderson was released in favor of giving Cameron Artis-Payne more playing time, I'd jump on the "fire Rivera" bandwagon with both feet.

The officially stated reason for now is that with McCaffrey doing everything, they felt he just wasn't needed.

Now we are spending money to downgrade the RB position. I woke up in 2011.

Wouldn't the logical move then be to release CAP instead of CJ??

I really think it is a system thing. I don't think CJ fits Norv's misdirection offense. I was talking to a close friend at WFNZ and he relayed this as a possibility a week ago. Hats off to him, I thought he was pulling it out of his ass.

Well, I think somebody pulled it out of their ass.

This is disappointing. I thought he would make a huge difference if he got some touches. They gave up on him before giving him any shots.

I think it's a terrible decision.

Can't really justify it system wise either. Artis-Payne is a lot more like Anderson than he is McCaffrey.

In that scenario, you basically just dropped a better running back to elevate a lesser version of the same style.

I bet Anderson asked for the release.  He gets 1-2 carries a game lol
