 Christian McCaffrey joined Hall of Famer Jim Brown (1963) as the only players with at least 150 scrimmage yards and at least one touchdown in six of the first eight games of a season in NFL history.

Cool...very cool.

 

Anyone have a gif yet of him sliding on the leg of the Titan would be tackler for the TD?

It is kinda weird to me that CMC's jaw dropping play this year seems to be overshadowed by a stupid neverending debate about our qb situation, and then when someone actually does point out what he's doing, there is a cacophony of hand wringing over "running CMC into the ground".

Why don't we all just take a deep breathe, relax, and enjoy the warm glow of his otherworldly talent for just a bit without worrying about anything.

Just for 5 minutes, I promise it won't hurt.

The guy is unreal. I don't live too far from where he's from and I'm actually in Castle Rock a couple of times a month or so and everyone knows I'm a Panthers fan. They all told me we were getting the best player in the draft and they were pissed because they desperately wanted him to be a Bronco, but damn... I don't even think the massive homers understood just how good this guy was going to be

Its crazy how much the local media can get all over CMC.  When he and his brothers helped the fallen hiker you've thought he was a Broncos player for as much as they talked about him.

    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
