If any of these things are true, we win the game yesterday

Maybe building an offense around an amazing RB being rode into the ground is not a good idea?

CMC could be a huge bonus but the way we used him last year and this year combined with our desperate need for him to be on the field leaves me very skeptical about his future availability this year once he clears this injury. It's a bad place to be and I'm never excited about ruining a star player. We will win more with CMC but how long is that going to last at the level of touches he has seen?

This. And this cannot be overstated. I would say one of the silver linings in the loss is Chuba coming in and shining should give the coaching staff the confidence that we can effectively spell McCaffrey...but I said that last year when Mike Davis was doing well. And they didn't learn poo.

I'm so conflicted on CMC. It's great that we have one of the best players in the league. But I don't want to get too excited about him. Because I know we're gonna grind him down into a fine powder and then watch blow him away in a cloud of dust like the end of The Last Crusade.

He's that shiny new toy that you never wanted to play with when you were a kid, because you knew if you broke it, you'd never get another one. Then your stupid fugging cousin came over and started smashing it into the floor.

If this was 1970 I would say it's a great plan. At this point it just hurts to watch.

    • They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers
    • Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.
    • Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
