Would this team have won a game this season without CMC?

In every victory, CMC has carried a massive share of the offense on his shoulders. Would the Panthers have won even a single game without him? Maybe a case could be made for the Cardinals game, or maybe the Texans game, but McCaffrey played a big role in those wins too. 

Honestly, without him, I think the Panthers had a realistic chance to have finished 0-16 this season.

When you think about, they might have won a couple without him at the goal line.  But I see your point, all those games with 200+ yards a couple scores might not have been wins.  The Jax game comes to mind. Still blows my mind how this team beat Houston and Tenn.

No one cares. We have 5 wins with him. He is not the QB.  He can not carry a team to victory. Are you guys blind?

To be fair, remove the best player from any team and things are gonna decline.

So yeah, minus McCaffrey we'd be lucky to win a game.

This is true.

We pretty much lost our best player after the Pittsburgh game last year, and it’s been a downward spiral since

Newton wouldn't have been the best player on the field this season.

Last season maybe, but not this year.

He’s been injured, so of course not for this season.

We were 6-2, and he was having a statistically great season before the shoulder fell apart last season; proving that he had made the transition from dual threat to pocket passer. When he’s healthy, he is our best player and most important.

Even if he has been healthy this season, I'd still have said McCaffrey was our best player. The MVP talk was legit.

That said, you're right about the improvement that Newton made last season. One offseason under Norv Turner was enough to show what we could have had if Rivera hadn't been so damn loyal to Mike Shula.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
