Is anybody even excited about CMC's potential return against the patriots?? I'm not. It almost feels like last year repeating itself.  I mean the dude could realistically get injured again for another month. How many chances do we give him? 

CMC is a special player, no denying it.  However, if he isn't playing the majority of games due to injuries, he's not much use to the team.  Panthers need to seriously consider any offers that involve high picks or players in positions of need.

I am a CMC fan but I fully agree that we should trade him when healthy and use money paid him on other players. The Panthers should never have paid him the salary that they did since the playing life of a RB is short due to all the hits they take.

Sorry guys, but CMC is not tradeable until the end of next year, at the earliest and he's more likely to be cut than traded. Here's why:

If the Panthers traded him after this season, they would incur a $26,638,000 dead cap hit. In other words, it just isn't happening.

If they cut or trade him after 2022, the cap hit is $12,828,500 which isn't great, but it's not $26M either.\

BTW, running backs don't return high draft picks, especially if they miss a ton of games in a two-year span.

      J Person article on Canales and game plan and Rico

      By strato · Posted

      I think you know. Apparently winning is secondary to Bryce’s development. Same as it has been.     In a way it may be good because we didn’t need to make the playoffs and extend this fuging charade about Bryce being the guy. Better in the long run if he gets enough rope to hang himself with.

      Dave Canales is not the problem. He just isn't

      I know DC is overthinking this and he really needs to be OC or HC, but how do you call plays with a QB that in all reality, shouldn't be starting. Bryce is wildly inconsistent. He should lean on Rico and the run game, but if he does and wins, it presents a false narrative that Bryce is better than he is and he's potentially stuck with him for another season. If he doesn't, he looks incompetent as a play caller, but it exposes the ugly side of his QB situation that he really does need a QB that can execute at minimum a basic NFL offense with some decent consistency.  I feel a little sorry for the guy because he was anchored with Young this season and even more weight with Dalton getting a 2 year deal. He has very little to work with at the most important position on his team and it's not his doing. The trade deadline was approaching and it was plainly obvious we needed to do something but we didn't for whatever reason.  I don't think he's a complete bonehead and don't know what he's supposed to do. Win games and potentially keep Bryce or lose them by putting the weight on Bryce's shoulders. Either he succeeds or fails.  As a coach I know you're supposed to play to win the game, but do you win now at the ultimate long term detriment to your team and locker room?
