So no one else concerned about CMC towards the end of the game?

He is an absolute beast of a player but there comes a huge concern. He's literally in every play. The dude was tired. Of course because of the monster game but wtf is wrong with the coaching staff? Do they not know there are more weapons? If CMC keeps getting over worked like this be may not last long. Norv and Rivera need to understand that the ball can be distributed and not lean so much on CMC. Look what happened to Cam. I'm thrilled about the W's on the record but for fugs sake expand and utilize the other weapons available.

As long as it was just cramps, no.

But if it serves as a wake up call to Rivera and Turner, that'd be kind of a positive.

Well, we also learned that Bon can spell a bit too. Our run blocking today deserves a bit of credit. 

That said, cmc is playing tecmo bowl while defenses are adjusting their rosters for madden 19. Myles Jack was lost today.

ALL PLAYERS NEED TO DRINK SNAKE JUICE

 

 

 

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1 teaspoon of "no salt" (potassium)

1 teaspoon of baking soda

1/2 teaspoon on Food grade Epsom salt (magnesium)

 

replenish your electrolytes!!! 

Anything that gets Ron Swanson doing the Charleston is legit in my book

I'm gone go half full here and be more encouraged by the fact he was taking gels on the sideline and not just drinking. Yes, they worked him a little too hard, but at least we have a training staff the maximizing the nutrition/energy part.

Not concerned for 2 reasons.

1) It was just cramps (or I am at least operating under the assumption it just was).  

2) Reggie showed up without missing a beat.  The hand was forced, even temporarily, for the team not to absolutely lean on CMC for 100% of the run game.  Reggie stepped up and said "I can give CMC a breather here and there".  

Due to how minor I view cramps, combined with how great Reggie looked (I know, small sample size), I would be more willing to let CMC take a little break here and there going forward.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
