CMC getting closer to 1000-1000

[Forty-Eight]

We had this talk last season and it didn’t happen.  Now, we are at it again this season. Really hoping that it’ll finally happen. CMC needs 186 total receiving yards in the next two games and he’ll be only the 3rd player to do it with Roger Craig and Marshall Faulk. The crazy thing is, CMC is doing it with an undrafted backup QB Kyle Allen. CMC is a friggin monster.

Very likely he comes up just short of that , 186 receiving yards is a lot for a RB in 2 games. Its possible but somewhat improbable. 

I'm guessing he ends up with about 1450 rushing and 925 receiving.

Force feed him the ball against the colts then rest him for week 17. 

My Fantasy teams need it in the Ship.

They should just throw bombs to CMC all game. Might as well try to get him the record.

who cares?

As far as I'm concerned this should be the goal of this team. He's openly talked about wanting it, and he deserves it. Give this team, this fanbase, something, anything, to remember this season favorably for. Last season we had the Graham Cannon kick and the comeback in Philly. We have nothing now. It's been a nightmare. Give us something.

If there's any commitment at all to him at Indy, he's going to put a massive dent into it. AFC teams have traditionally had no idea how to handle him.

 

Also, he had exactly 175 yards yesterday. I believe it was posted after like the first 5 games that he had had 4, and that the record most 175 yard games in a season was 6. The team clearly wasn't  cognizant of it because he came obscenely close multiple times, and because norv was trying to turn Kyle Allen into a fantasy superstar.

 

But I think he's got 5 total now with two games to go.

ok.  if that mf gets hurt because we're trying to pad his stats it's gonna suck ass.

I'm trying to wrap my head around the chasing meaningless records in a losing season thing after all the talk we've had to endure the last several months about those "player only" fans.

Have to say I doubt it would have gone over well if people were talking about Newton chasing records being the team goal in a losing season.

First, I'm a team first guy, and I would prefer to sit CMC, it's the "smart" thing to do.  However, we are dealing with humans here.

My response to your post would be, were you willing to force Cam to sit meaningless games when we were eliminated from the playoffs in seasons past to protect him?

Isn't us refusing to do so even as recently as last year when he was clearly injured why we are in this current predicament?

Obviously knowing what we know now, I would say yes sit him, especially since he's a vet.
