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

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
