McCaffrey vs Thomas


t96

Recommended Posts

McCaffrey:

2,392 total yards

19 total touchdowns

115 first downs

81.7% catch rate

 

Thomas:

1,716 total yards

9 total touchdowns

91 first downs

80.5% catch rate

 

 

Where does Thomas beat McCaffrey other than receptions (which mean nothing)? How in the world could these people vote for Thomas over McCaffrey? It’s unjustifiable. You could argue Lamar for OPOY, sure. But Thomas over McCaffrey just makes no sense.

I get Lamar had a great season but he barely threw for 3k yards...in a passing league I get it he ran for 1200 but still. Kyle Allen threw for more yards in 2 less games lol.

But anyways onto the topic at hand yea McCaffery was robbed and 100% deserving of OPOY. The only reason we didn't go 0-16 actually

The Saints went 13-3 and we went 5-11. That shouldn't matter in an individual award but somehow it still does. You rarely see guys from bad teams winning these things.

Usually the best candidates for the award are in the playoffs, that’s just natural. And sure that’s fine to look at if the stats are at least somewhat close. But McC has nearly 700 more yards and over twice as many TDs. It’s just not even close at all. And that’s with McC doing it all by himself in an archaic offense and poor OL compared to Thomas with offensive mastermind Payton, HoFer Brees and an elite OL... It’s unfathomable. 

I’d be completely fine if Lamar won it over McC, he has a case. But comparing these two, it’s just silly that Thomas even received a single vote over McC.

Racism works both ways. McCaffrey is a white running back. He will never get the credit he deserves. Just look at how stupid Booger and Kellerman sounded talking with Cmc the other day. Saquon and Zeke have never had a season even remotely close to what McCaffery accomplished and they were straight disrespecting him to his face.

If either zeke or saquon had Cmc’s season even with a losing record they would have run away with Opoty and Potentially MVP. Marshall Faulk who was the most recent 1000 / 1000 won an MVP and Opoty.

It’s because CMC is white. People still don’t want to believe that a “white” running back can be that great. 

Ultimately despite some great performances from McCaffrey the Panthers were just getting taken to the woodshed too frequently. We finished the season on an 8 game losing streak. Eight. Games. It's not difficult to imagine why even CMC is being overlooked when there were so many more competitive teams than us and some that didn't even make the playoffs.

Lamar did lead the league in passing TDs though so it wasn’t just his rushing that got him MVP... He was dominant. And with some suspect weapons around him (probably better than Cam’s in 2015 but not by a lot...).

If you’re talking about MVP, yes that is all valid, since that’s about value and ultimately value is how you contribute to your team winning games. But for straight up OPOY none of that should matter one bit. What if you have a top 5 offense and a guy like McC is putting up crazy numbers like this and dominating, but your D is the worst in the history of the league and your team has very few wins? The results of the team (which includes defense) should have zero bearing on offensive player of the year.

Thomas has the right complexion Cmc is part of the anti-trump movement lol

Christian made the all pro team at 2 positions. He gets tons of credit.

    • Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding. 
    • Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership
    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
