Value of RB's - how much worse would we have been without McCaffrey

disagree. mccaffrey is a great receiver regardless of volume.

What RB could not catch the kind of passes CMC catches ..

He leaks out and catches little dump downs, any RB can do that .. people talk about CMC the receiver like he is schooling CB's downfield - he catches dump offs - Scarlett could do what CMC does

he’s a good route runner and he’s very good in space. yeah many running backs could put up 100 catches if they were force fed in the same way but he’s pretty good at maximizing those catches.

With McCaffrey - 5-11

Without McCaffrey - 1-15

An elite RB and we're still terrible but oh no! without him we'd be even more terrible!

RB's are next to worthless - as this season demonstrates

This ridiculous attempt of a post doesn’t even warrant a response. I hope your excuse is you’re drunk.

He has the most “draft capital” on the team. Trade him for a bunch of picks including a few firsts. 
By the time we are relevant again, he will either be up for a deal we can’t afford or he will be a shell of himself because  we have ran him into retirement.


 Don’t get me wrong, he’s amazing, however if you are going to rebuild, you need more bodies.

We should trade McCaffrey to Denver .. we were terrible and he had a great season .. we can be terrible without him

i’m ok with trading him, especially if we’re going to rebuild, but not for whatever reasons you’re coming up with.

edit for clarification: would prefer to keep him if cam returns and we hire an innovative offensive mind to be the head coach

    • Hmmm... not a good start. Maybe I'm reading too much into this but after the guy who has been carrying your offense expresses frustration with his sudden lack of use and your HC just blows it off and confirms they haven't even talked, your PR team decides to use the guy who should be his backup as their poster boy hyping this week's game? Yikes. Hard not to interpret that as another slap in the face.
    • For some reason this is becoming a disturbing trend in the NFL. Teams are shutting down one part of their offense without causation from the opposition. Shane Steichen did it an overtime loss against Kansas City last week with the best back in the NFL. Pete Carroll allowed Chip Kelly to completely abandon the run game against Dallas the week before he was fired in Oakland as the OC. Matt Lafleur abandoned the pass instead choosing to rely on a bottled up run game when we clearly were having issues with the passing game. Big brain play callers some of them HCs are what the league wanted along with high powered offense and these dudes are making some of the dumbest situational calls I've ever seen. At least most of them are young and can learn, Canales included. I remember Norv Turner trying to throw the ball around the yard in a certain SuperBOWL, going in at halftime down 13-6. Emmitt Smith said get me the d*mn ball and took over in the 2nd half. Remember Kyle Shanahan in the 2nd half vs. the Patriots? This shite happens to the best and the brightest. We are just actively seeing it play out in real time just like Atlanta and Dallas fans before us.  Also, not saying Canales is going to become either of those, just begging/hoping for our sanity he gets his shite together if he's going to be our HC.
