Christian McCaffery needs to be used less while staying on the field

I said this during the Pittsburgh preseason game when the line got obliterated, when Christian is on the field, no team can put pressure on us because of his ability to catch on the dumpoff for 5-10+ yards.

When this proved correct against the Jets and Saints, the Panthers insisted on running CMC into piles right up the middle, putting obvious strain on his body.

Christian McCaffery's worth isn't getting hit, it's simply just him BEING OUT THERE for the defense to have to honor. We could be using 3 back formations with Chubba Hubbard taking the hard hits when we need to run up the middle, while keeping Christian out there for that threat to honor...CMC brings little TO NO value as a 99% of snap every down back.

No crap he got hurt, he's getting hit 30-40 times a game, lower that to 10-20 at most and he stays on the field. 

Why are we using his hits on meaningless 2-3 yard carries? NO PLAYER IN HISTORY can take the punishment CMC takes game after game in a 17 game season... It's been a joke since 18 when we cut CJ Anderson just to give CMC 100% of snaps.

Totally disagree we paid him to be the bell cow and you giver your bell cow the ball. Look DavinCook got over 30 touches and they won. If he gets hurt that’s part of the game and we find another back. CMC vision and agility are his best attributes and I don’t want to take putting him into the slot to be some decoy. If you think CMC any last neither will Hubbard they are both built similar .Warrick Dunn was smaller than CMC and he played just fine from RB
