If he's done, then the season is done unless Brady all of a sudden learns how to properly orchestrate an offense, Sam all of a sudden starts throwing to open receivers, and Chuba starts catching passes.

Just gonna conveniently leave out the O line and put it on Sam there?

Probably what we're looking at. I bet CMC comes back in a few weeks for a game or two though.

Honestly, I've already accepted that CMC being hurt is the norm from here on out. 

Not yet, but that certainly is a possibility.

 

Typically running backs don't get more healthy as their career progresses.

At this rate we probably won’t see him until after the bye week. He should be 100% with another 6 weeks rest, right?

Only reason I can see as to why they didn’t IR him is so they can make teams have to guess with their gameplan if he’s going to play. That’s amateur hour. With all our other injuries the extra roster spot would be mighty useful.

There have been many parting gifts left by Hurney on both of his departures....this is yet another.

This is just misguided, GMs can't predict injuries. Dont care how bad or good they are. Cmc had no injury history prior to getting that contract and you werent gonna be able to pay the best RB in the league peanuts.

Joe Brady can’t successfully and consistently scheme around 4 horrible offensive line paired with an average QB.  No OC can.  

and all of that with his entire time as OC with the highest paid and best player in CMC on the shelf almost every week. 

we don’t have a Joe Brady problem.

Rbs are notorious for breaking down after they sign second contracts. They just take too many hits. We should’ve never given him that contract so soon. He’d be playing under his 5th year option right now.

He’s taking a very Cam’esque route in his career. Injuries piling up after a mega payday 

Cam signed his contract the off-season before he took us to the super bowl.

      How am I all over the place?  I'm still saying that. I'm saying that Chark at his best and T-Mac right now, on the same team right now for the 2025 season, T-Mac would be ahead of him on the depth chart Week 1. Because in the same way everyone is saying, "T-Mac hasn't played a snap in the NFL yet", the very same is true to say, "nothing Chark did in his past matters moving forward" His peak was a 1,008 yard season where he was the only decent WR on a terrible team.  He didn't put up the 1k yard season because he was a great WR, it was because of how bad the rest of them on the team were. His stats aren't the same as his ability, and his ability was never all that good to begin with. Hell, most of this board agrees that T-Mac is our #1 right now, even if Thielen is Bryce's #1 option early in the saeson just because of the comfort level there, he's still just a slot safety valve and T-Mac is our #1. If you put peak Chark on the roster RIGHT NOW (even without T-Mac)... is anyone even putting him over Thielen, XL, or Coker going into this season? I'm honestly not sure many of us would consider him as such, because even at his best, he was just a JAG.  So if the same people who are okay with T-Mac being ahead of those guys right now, wouldn't put Chark above them, how can you in the same breath say Chark was better than T-Mac already is now?

      Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.

      When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
