McCaffrey took This Loss Personally

From David Newton . 

Christian McCaffrey spent a long time sitting in front of his locker after Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Packers. The Panthers running back was hard on himself for not scoring on the final play. But McCaffrey didn't let his teammates down and he kept himself in the running for NFL MVP with 141 yards from scrimmage (108 rushing, 33 receiving) and one touchdown. He has 14 touchdowns on the season, tied for the most in the league.

He had that one play earlier in the season where he didn't get the TD at the end either. This dude has been far from the problem and might be the only reason why we've been in games this year.

As good as he's been he's on a team with a horrible defense and has clown coaches with their head in the sand and he still produces.

I could honestly seem him trying to go to another team as soon as his contract is up if Tepper sits on his hands and doesn't make some serious changes in the next couple years.

I doubt it. CMC is a lot like Luke Kuechly. Doesn't care about some stupid contract. As a matter of fact, he was the first 2017 1st rounder to sign his contract. All he wants is play football to the best of his ability & win.

He ain't another Le'veon Bell.

The playcalling and situation in this game and the Bucs game basically set him up to fail.  Norv Turner just doesn't get it.

He’s probably pretty pissed he has come up short two times with a chance to tie or possibly win the game.  As far as him leaving, doubt it.  Not many teams give out the work load that Carolina gives him.

Agreed. He's been given the final play of the game twice now & he's gone 0-2. This time only inches short. Plus, he's tired, worn out & just froze his ass off.

That's gotta hurt. But it may also mean he'll run with fire next week vs. the Falcons. And you know he HATES the Saints.

      Playoffs!? You wanna talk about playoffs!?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      It's been many a year since we were in December talking about how games mattered for something other than draft order. This crazy, mixed up, unpredictable, maddening, uplifting and teeth gnashing season has certainly not been boring.

      Icky Contract Extension

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      If you look at Brown and Horn's contracts, expect to pay above what he is likely actually worth. This is the Panthers suckage tax. Ultimately, much like Derrick Brown, he has steadily improved over time and that's what you want out of your young first round draft picks. He was one of the biggest and most important question marks coming into the season and he has answered it conclusively. He is "the guy" at LT. Great news, one less position of extreme importance to have to attempt to remedy.

      This is maddening because, well, it's so up and down. When the kid's on, he can be great. When he's mediocre, we can still win based on a strong running game and good defense. When he's bad, and over his history he's this more than not, then it's a sad show that no one could win with. How can anyone know what is going to happen right now? Really. It's like picking one flake in a snow globe and shaking it once a week... there is no telling where it will end up. Things I did see on Sunday from Bryce: his teammates love him; he can make the big throws with good protection and good effort from his receivers. He isn't afraid to run. He can rise up against the best in competition (but he can also sink to the level of bad competition).  All I can say is if Canales goes with an aggressive game plan for Bryce that leans on a hot-hand running game, the team can beat anyone. If there's any wishy-washy play calling, then Bryce melts and couldn't beat anyone.  Maybe the person Bryce needs to win over more than anyone is Canales.
