I miss seeing CMC on Sundays.  Watching him is just electric.  Hopefully no injuries this year.  Though last year toward the end, the hammy issue or something, I was questioning if that was legit or was that some kind of excuse to sit him the last couple games.

When performing his best there is not 1 single non-QB that has more influence on a game.

None.  Not 1.

30th?  Only if 1/29 are the starting QBs of every team.  And yes he probably beats out 2 or more QBs.

This includes offense and defense.

He also wasn't healthy.

30th isn't a bad spot given last year and this being O+D.

If he's healthy all year, he's probably top 20 or top 15 next year.

He's probably 30th because of the injury.

Not according to them.

The ranking below is a projection of what we think will happen and not necessarily a reaction to a spectacular or underwhelming 2020 season

They haven't announced their Top 20 yet, but they did already have 1 RB ahead of CMC, Dalvin Cook.

That's open to debate, but to see Denver S Justin Simmons at #23 is a laughing comparison.  He might be the best FS in the league, but factors in on far fewer plays.

Such a list -- any list of "rankings" -- is only meant to spark debate, though.  It's just Sam Monson's opinion.

Eh....IDK about that. Top 5 in the NFL, offense and defense.....that's a pretty tall order. IMO, he should be safely top 15-20. 

I feel like mixing all NFL players versus splitting the offensive and defensive players makes ranking them tougher, as well. 

CMC is clearly a top 10 offensive player in the NFL, IMO.

How would you rank him compared to his contemporary dual threat backs in Kamara and Cook?

I have CMC has the #1 overall RB. I think the only guy that could have an argument is probably Henry because he can be so insanely dominant at times.

The Carolina Panthers have two divisional victories in the last two seasons and one of them was against Jameis Winston. Does anyone really expect our guys to be listed above players contending in the playoffs? McCaffrey has to stay healthy and help get this team out of the cellar.

I imagine had we been fighting for a playoff spot at the end of the year, he would have been playing.

I mean top YAC in the NFL and he basically missed an entire season? That’s pretty close to top 5 territory.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
