He was the one really bright spot for me tonight.  Holyfield did well for himself also, but I was really impressed with Scarlett.  I wasn't all that familiar with him before we drafted him, but having read up on him afterwards and seeing some of the scouting profiles and highlights of him, I said in other posts here that I saw some similarities with Marshawn Lynch.  Obviously, that would be a best-case scenario, but I was highly impressed with him tonight.  He seems to have great vision, quickness, elusiveness, great balance and strength on contact, and he always seems to find positive yards.  At worst, I think he is everything our staff hoped CAP would be when he was drafted, but he has so much more potential.

I do hope having a good relief running back this season will help preserve CMC a little longer so he can end up having a long career here without being run into the ground like Cam has been.  I am a big supporter of CMC being much tougher than people would like to make it out but lets be real, Cam Newton is as close to Superman as you can get and he has been beat to a pulp over the last few seasons.  I just do not want to see the same thing from our stud offensive player.  I feel like CMC is one of those players that HATES being on the sidelines ( he strikes me as a Luke kinda guy when it comes to work ethic on the field ).  With that said, I hope he is able to be okay with sharing the load a little and let this stud come in a pick up some of the yards ( even tough ones if needed )

 

Really hoping Scarlett pans out the rest of the pre-season and we have a nice 1-2 punch at running back.  Also, having them both on the field at the same time could end up being a freakin nightmare to defenses ( especially with Cam under center ).  I am salivating thinking of the possibilities.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
