Very few people are eviscerating DJ, Burns, Brown (these days) etc. And you are also sorta proving the point its not about race. You've been embarrassingly called out on this by numerous posters. Cause its obvious you are inconsistent and making something out of this that isn't actually there. But by all means, keep hating on CMC thinking his support is a race issue. It obvious makes everyone else think you are incredibly smart!

I've seen your tinderbox posts. You aren't that interesting or a Rhodes scholar yourself.

Which ones specifically? My libertarian stances or is it my vaccine hesitancy from a year ago? Any other straw men you want to throw my way while you’re grasping for air here?

I just don't see how anyone can watch CMC on game days throughout his entire career (including after getting his extension) and suggest he's the type of guy who gets paid and then checks out for self-preservation.  The dude gives it 150% on every snap and does not play like a guy trying to preserve his body.  Elflein shared a story about how CMC came into the training room in last year's game against the Saints (soon after his "fat contract") violently vomiting with full body cramps, got a quick IV, and then went back in to finish handling his usual 30 touches/game.

If I were to make a list of possible reasons for CMC's significant injury history/missed games over the last couple seasons, my list (in order of likelihood) would go:

1) He's legit building up nagging injuries due to his 479 touches per game because of how overly reliant our offense is on him (including continuously running him up the gut like a 250-pound battering ram)

2) Rhule putting him on IR prematurely to build an excuse for his failures (unlike CMC, Rhule has shown time and time again of being fueled by self-preservation)

THEN a distant 3rd would be CMC playing up the injuries to avoid sacrificing his body for a losing team.

Easy. When he's suited up and on the field he's gonna give it his all. When he has the clear mind of being able to think about it he makes smarter decisions. Call it the football version of post nut clarity.

Scot you have well over 100k posts here and I saw the ones back when we lost games with Cam and you were definitely not saying wins and losses were a team stat and defending losing. If you want to deny it go ahead. I'm sure others remember it as well. We don't need to keep dragging this out. Thanks for the chat.

Actually I've always said that.

I've also commented on when players were playing poorly, when coaches are doing a poor job, when ownership sucked, etc.

It's fairly simple.

I'd miss him too, but productive RB's are a dime a dozen these days and be gotten in the 5th round.  Hell, you can get a decent RB as an undrafted free agent now.  The hopefully first round pick we would get in return for CMC is more valuable right now, IMO.  Let him go chase a ring on a good team. 

Oh don't get me wrong I totally agree. We need a 1st more than CMC.

You sound like a real swell guy to me. Cheers.

Happily Frank. Clearly I’m a bad person and a racist for liking CMC even though I want to trade him. I wish I were better man. You got me figured out. And maybe we can get you to play DB next season. You’ve got a knack for key deflections.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
