This organization left Cam without a Oline and WR's for his entire career. Let him take a total ass beating. CMC is next in line to be beaten down. A player cannot survive long with that workload. Cam may never be 100% again....waste of a great talent.

CMC is a great back. Playing the majority of the offensive plays is not sustainable. This coaching staff has learned nothing. They continue to ride the horse until it collapses and do the same with the next great player. 

CMC will be just like Cam in the end....beaten down and broken due to the stupidity of the coaching staff and the organization

We need a young progressive coach like McVay who.....who....pounded his running back with even more touches per game 

Oops never mind. Everyone loves McVay 

Or maybe McVay realized he needed to take some of the beating off his RB, so he went out and found a tremendous RB to take the load off him.

C-Mac is a young, smart and strong RB who desires to play as much as possible. Thus far, there has been absolutely nothing to prove that he can't handle his level of usage. When that day comes, it will be addressed. Moreover, an elite RB's shelf life is markedly less than that of a QB's, so things are going to be managed differently.

Rivera does not look to the future--only worried about his job at the moment. Wear and tear adds up.  To assume you can tell that his  tires are not going to wear out when he is 23 is not that smart.

He can switch to something of a slot WR as he matures, but running between the tackles as much as he does?  He has 4 or 5 years left, according to most statistics.

Wrong.  He can do more than your average running back. 97% of the offensive plays is stupid.  Now name be the best 2 teams in the playoffs. Both of those teams have 2 good running backs and they both find a way to use them.  Dam even John Fox knew that.

So, it's just another Anderson-Hurney-Rivera-Norv-are-stupud threads? Who knew? :thinking::tongue: Regardless, I'm answering the question as I see fit.

The problem is this wasn't a Ron decision.. I know ppl like Norv (as I do) but the CJ decision was his to make.. Not Rivera not Hurney's it was Norv who didn't use him and it was Norv who felt he didn't need him..

It’s true, no back lasts more than a few years getting 300+ carries a year,.. 

CJ was perfect at price, age and complement.

i saw CJ plant some linebackers and people blocking, blitz pickup and peremeter blocking— something a lot of running backs suck at.

it would be tough using a draft pick to replace him——-

So you are saying the Head Coach does not determine the personnel decisions of his coordinators?  Yes, they do--or should.  The fact is, you do not know who made the decision--but I know who oversees the decision.

The buck stops at the head coach.  It is his job to see the abuse of a player and cosider long and short range outcomes.

While that is the nature of the NFL long term, Rivera treated Cam horrendously. Play through injuries that should have sat him with the excuse that Cam really wanted to play and is a competitor? Hurrying Cam back from surgery to start the beginning of the year instead of missing a game or two with the strategy of making a playoff run with a healthy freak QB? Rivera sucks at strategy which is why he makes so many horrible decisions. The guy is a joke, a likable guy, but a joke of a HC. I'm not convinced he can even play checkers. Or tick-tak-toe. Or draw lines between dots. 

CMC will absolutely be next. What determines his longevity will be his resistance to such treatment.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      You bring up a good point on the stability part and i would agree that probably will factor into it. But yes, Tepper does have a strong influence on who stays/goes but I still believe ultimately it'is Morgan, Tilis and Canales who will decide.

      I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.

      holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!
