CMC story

Yeah, I really wish we had a bruiser as well.  I wish we'd kept Mike Davis or CJ Anderson.  I know they want CMC in there to keep the D off balance but it just seems there'd be a way to have both CMC and the bruiser in on goal line situations.  Then they'd really have no clue what to defend.

D'Onta Foreman anybody?

Love the skillset, not how he has been used and how that has ended.

I need to see a healthy year from him before I have hope going forward.

Unfortunately he's just injury prone at this point. He's barely played for two years but keeps on pulling up lame.

Nah but most of you seem to be seeing as how shocked everyone is when he’s injured after being over utilized behind a trash line. 

Me? Not at all. I understand the NFL very well. Injuries are part of the game, period. 

Some players get lucky, and seem to avoid major injuries, but in the end it always catches up with them. 

Different positions have different career life spans in the NFL. 

Guess then2 positions with the shortest?

Linebacker and running back. Surprise surprise. 

I expect you know these things. 

CMC Has missed most of 2 seasons due to 2 not common injuries, that really haven't done ANYTHING to take away his ability. 

Is he going to stay healthy ever during a full season? fug no. Does that.mean he shouldn't get paid? fug no. Does that.mean he shouldn't play? fug no. 

Play your starters. Feed your studs.  The quest is a championship, not a 20 year career.

I like him too and when healthy is one of the top backs in the league. Plus he was awesome to my kid when he met him in May. I have no idea what stunting means though. From the way you wrote it Im guessing it means prove them wrong, make them eat their words or do so well by returning to old form that it makes the people who wanted him gone change their minds and thats cool I'd love to see it. I've come to like CMC as I have Cam and Luke and a few others who are to me just Panthers through and through.

It's not a joke. I love watching him before he breaks down.

It’s a recycled joke at that. At least come with some original material. 
 

He’s one of the last things to break year in and out with this organization. This teams spirit is already broken and we aren’t even through one game yet. If he gets any long term injuries this year it’ll likely come in the context of overuse secondary to realizing he’s one of the few options that are worth a damn on this team.

    • You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.
    • Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.   
    • fingers crossed for BlueSky embeds to come with the board update at least all the schedule reveals will be on the youtube
