Sam Darnold said he thinks Christian McCaffrey will be back this season, but adds that’s him being optimistic.

 

I figured it was a hamstring pull, day to day. Is it a full tear? Wtf is going on here.

 

 

His gait was fairly unimpaired from the short clip I saw of him walking to the tent. Full tear would be obvious.

I couldn’t put any weight on my leg after I tore my hamstring and had an exaggerated limp when I would walk through the pain. He doesn’t have a full tear.
 

He will probably miss a couple of games. The good news is that Sam was forced to make throws to a bunch of other receivers and our backup RBs were forced to find ways to get yards and they all did it. Will be a big confidence boost going into the Dallas game. Would’ve been a lot worse to lose CMC in the Dallas game and then figure out life without him with bullets flying.

We can gameplan now without him.  I think that was our problem in the first half last night, no plan for no CMC.  Brady made adjustments and put something together for the second half that wasn't as reliant on McCaffrey being in.

We had CMC long enough to get our feet under ourselves.  I'm torn but kinda hoping he rests and heals for a few games even if it's minor.  We've always known we've got to be able to pull out a few wins without him.  I'd rather try that out with the teams we face now rather than the ones we face at the end of the year.

      Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3.

      After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...

      The Icky knee didn't explode draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
