Apparently you two have no concept of the word "talent," which often dictates who gets the ball in important situations. You see, the goal of a football game is to win, which is achieved primarily through using a team's best players when the situations arise. 

"Winning" can be achieved by using multiple RBs, which I'd suggest in not giving CMC 30 touches every week, but resting a player on an important down because "the whole team duh" is a better option, is dumb as hell

The Carolina Panthers record the last two seasons speaks for itself. Stay mad dude.

Ha you got me. Gotta take what you can get right? Sounds like Panthers fans the last few years with our moral victories and meaningless records. Here's to hoping '21 is different 🍺

Dude I don't want us to run McCaffrey in the ground anymore than anyone else, I'm just saying that when he's had a year of rest and no preseason action, Week 1 was the best time to give him 30 touches (especially with many of them not being between the tackles).

All bluster and back and forth aside I don't think you do we all seek the same thing. We know CMC is one of the top offensive weapons in the league but we also made the decision to extend him to a large contract before we got our oline even halfway built up right and we have made very little effort to locate a correct back to spell him and offer a yin to his yang and this is why we find ourselves in this dilemma. I do not think he is a goal line 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1 back he just isn't built for it I don't know how many times we have to see that fail before we understand what works and it's the same maddening thing with a new staff and I say that while making it clear I like Matt Rhule and want him to succeed. As of rn we are far too predictable and struggling in the redzone and that is a carryover from the previous regime we really do not want to see. I fear we made a mistake in only rolling with Chuba behind CMC and thinking we were good but we shall see. We need a guy who can punch it in on those short yardage situations and if it isn't anyone on the roster they're willing to give a chance to like Royce they need to locate him or this season is going to get rough. That's about it.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?

      I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
