This is exactly why drafting a RB in the top 10 and paying huge money to RB's is a dumbass decision. Drafting CMC at 8 then making him the highest paid RB were dumbass moves.

Chuba is a 4th round pick and is good. Kamara, good, third round pick. Good RB's .. elite RB's can be regularly had in rounds 3 and 4 and even later.

Preach!

Robby appears to be open inside the hash; the DB bailed and was respecting his speed while protecting the sideline.  What you can't see is where that safety on that side of the field is until the ball is already in the air.  If anything, if the pass went to Robby (and he held onto the ball) it would have moved the sticks, but it's not like there was a TD pass to be had.

Also 5 Giants defenders in on that play.  That shouldn't happen unless two receivers end up in the same location and that's not by design.

Would Robby have made the 2 yard line? Because that's where the 1st down marker was.

Not so quick here is the top RB in yard so far this year Henry rd 2,Taylor rd 2, Mixon rd 2 , Chubb rd 2 , Elliott rd 1, Robinson free agent, Damien Harris rd 3, Henderson rd 3 , Fournett rd 1 , Gibson rd 3, Jones rd 5, Edmonds rd 4 , Harris rd 1, Karma rd 3, Cook rd 2 so mostly in rounds 1 or 2 and if CMC , Barkley, Jacobs we’re not hurt they would be in the top 15 and all were first round picks . So why trade away all our draft picks for a QB by your logic the best QB ever was a 6th round and we can pick them big guys with the first round picks

My view of it all was they sooooo much wanted to move on from Cam they did everything they could (+++carries etc.) to make this CMCs team instead.

All good and fine but you don't replace a star QB with a star RB. It doesn't work that way. Duh.

You don't pay a RB WR money either.

Then the Saints , Vikings , Cowboys ,Titans shouldn”t have paid their RB either which includes Kamara who signed a 75,000,000 million for 5 years . They all are right their with pay the same as CMC

Kamara probably just won the game on 3rd and 10.

Kamara is great and worth every dollar they pay him but if we didn’t pick CMC that year the Saints were going to with their pick and imagine CMC behind that o line with a play caller like Payton

How could you watch this game and conclude that a top tier RB is worth it?  I'm watching a 10-10 game between two teams that desperately need better QB play.

The QB us the most important position on the team nobody is debating that . But Derrick Henry just might go old school and take a team to the Super Bowl on his back.You also can’t just get a back off the scrap pile and expect to dominate they either picked in the 1st or 2nd round. We just made a mistake picking a RB high in the draft and not building a O line around him and Cam. We should have went O line instead of Brown and Burns . The top teams in the NFL this year all put more emphasis on Offense instead of Defense

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
