You may be right.  But I just like finding a new underdog to root for every season. This year I think Scarlett is my guy.  Holyfield May be tough but he is a plodder. This kid has strength and speed.  I really like how he runs. 

Who knows if we will ever use him.  But at least I can get my hopes up.  We have no intention of ever using CAP.  

I agree with this.. It's  nice to have a power back with speed to go the distance..

Let me put this another way.  Part of my wanting to find a second quality running back stems from the fact that we run 90% of our darn offense through the kid.  If CMC goes down and we can’t run the ball because of CAP being just mediocre we are in trouble.  

If CMC goes down it makes us one dimensional and then they are gonna pin their ears back against Cam.  Hell we could be left with a season with Grier trying to run this offense with CAP running the ball.  The is a disaster. 

So is Scarlett the answer?  I have no idea.  But I am hoping we find someone to have a good 1, 2 punch.  And to grind out some 4 th quarter games.  We can’t keep running CMC like the Rams did Gurley.

    • Over previous years? Sure is 😆
    • An odd little vibe I've noticed here of late: some folks are "all or nothing" to an absolutely extreme level when it comes to Bryce. Here's a bit of truth telling though: There are, in fact, things Bryce does well. Likewise, there are areas in which he's improved over his time here. He has, on several occasions now, legitimately helped us win games. On the flipside, there have been failures in other areas as well as coaching that we're not in any way his fault.  And finally , it is also genuinely possible that the team may see him as the future, even if we don't. The craziest part, though? It's actually possible that they're right and we're wrong. All of this is true, and more, yet if you accept any of these premises people go from zero to apesh-t in under three seconds 😳 Anything less than total disavowal of Bryce and / or agreement that he's the worst QB of all time and suddenly you're a "stan". Oy 🙄 The reality though?  Bryce is indeed an NFL quarterback. Not a great one, probably backup level good, and I've seen way worse. Now, if you run that statement through your personal Google translator and it comes back with some version of "I want to throw 50 million a year at Bryce for the next 10 years", that's not really my issue it's yours  I don't wanna make him the franchise quarterback, but it's not my call. Win or lose, the team is going to do what they think is best. And as always, if it disagrees with what I think we should do, I'm gonna hope I'm the one who's wrong. Internet clout means nothing. Watching my favorite team win at my favorite sport meas fun 😁
