Hamstrings are a problem........and their tendons especially.........they are stubborn injuries slow to heal and can flare up in an instant if they get too tight and tweek again from jooking too much on the field........not to mention someone rolling up on it in a pile........

Football is such a rough game its hard to imagine anyone playing it at this level............

Do you understand how the contracts work for 1st round players?

Do you understand todays RBs are well aware of how their position is treated in this era? Top Rbs are not waiting till their contacts are up to get new ones. They will hold out midway threw till they are extended to guarantee they get their money. Zeke did it and Cmc was prepared to do it too. Its business, from that standpoint u cant really blame him especially after carrying the team offensively the prior year.

If he converted to WR he would be making a little more than Anderson and has a hell of a lot more upside. Not many RBs could do that and he was raised by a damn good one. 

His body doesn't look ruined, yet. Not asking him to constantly be hit by and having to block 300 lbs guys would do wonders for his health. He is still the most talented guy on the team, by a stretch. It's time to have the talk with him and if he want's to remain at RB then I think it's a good time to start looking at options. 

The notion it's wasted money is lame, it's wasted talent. It was the same with Cam, pissing away talent because the staff can't put anything decent around him while asking him to carry the offense and be the scheme. 

I don’t think you move  talent who is a great RB to be maybe a good WR. If we don’t want him at RB trade him before the deadline

This and the silence from the team makes me think he reaggravated the injury. The hamstring injuries can linger for some time.

Well, I guess our 65 million dollar head coach and his hand picked staff need to figure out how to win a game in the nfl without their crutch

as for CMC, he is becoming an expensive sports car.  When it runs it’s fabulous, it just run often  and becomes  an expensive toy   

wish him the best but I dont see him back until after the bye week a d unless Matt figured out how to win a Nfl game without hom, it wont matter 

the team store is 75% his jerseys.  Someone else needs to step up

He already is a great receiver that plays out of the backfield. I would rather have him on the field then traded, with whatever the cap implications are. 

If Curtis Samuels can do it when healthy, CMC can blow the doors off doing it.

It was stupid to extend him until after his 4th season...that's what we should have done...Marty didn't.

Yeah we basically ran our expensive sports car like we were in a destruction derby and now we're like oh sh*t. Sounds familiar huh?

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
