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.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
