Yes, because CMC has never been healthy. 

fug the stupidity. 

He was healthy for 3 and an absolute workhorse for 2 of those, no disagreement there. Unfortunately though dude's missed 23+ of 33 potential games the past 2 seasons with nagging soft tissue injuries. I want to believe he'll be healthy again and don't think Carolina should really limit him at all to start the season but it is what it is at this point.

CMC should be on the team this year, especially if they expect Matt C. to play early. He will be a rookie QBs best friend (along with the OL).

IMO limiting his touches is key to help keep him healthy. He makes a great decoy and will make the most of 10-12 carries a game. Freeman should get about the same (mostly the hard carries between the tackles).

successful teams watching welker and guys like kupp dominate, and watching the unfortunately limited film of cmc showing those same flashes, running crisp routes and being productive in the slot, and noticing the panthers think he’s Jerome Bettis 2.0 are probably salivating at using cmc the right way

meanwhile Rhule argues if our constantly injured HB isn’t avoiding open space and running between the tackles for 30 carries a game for 1/4 the season we are taking away what makes him special 

can’t make this poo up

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
