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 biggest problem we've had with this team since Rivera left is that we have become progressively more timid. Certainly on offense, but mostly on defense.  Football is not a finesse sport. It isn't gentlemanly. You don't want to kill or injure opposing players, but it is essential that you knock them hard enough to intimidate them or at least make them pensive about every move they make.  We used to be those guys. And we haven't been for a very long time.  So, I hope Dan and Dave can bring us back to this. We need it. And a tough, hard hitting team always gives you a shot, even when you might not have the finesse talent on the field.  Yes, it is a passing league, but scared or addled receivers and QBs change the whole game. We need our grit back. We've been a bunch of neutered Persian cats for too long.
    • A couple of notable insights I gained from this:  - Diontae Johnson seems eager to help Bryce progress in his career - Clowney is happy to be back home - Luke is essentially a FO spokesperson - Dan says he would've liked to have added more talent in the draft, and he seems eager to scour the waver wire for other team's cuts. It's easy to read into his statements that this roster rebuild is nowhere near complete in his eyes.
    • Keeping fit is something that many people overlook until they are out of shape and therefore must work harder to reach their physical goals. However, the work put into keeping your body healthy is worth it in both immediate results and long-term benefits. Here are some tips on fitness that can help keep you happy and healthy for years to come. Set up your weightlifting routine around your fitness goals. If you are trying to create large, bulky muscle you'll want to do more weight, but with longer rest periods between sets and between workouts. If you are trying to develop lean muscles with high endurance, you want to lift less weight, but do it more often and with shorter rest times. If you're a person who likes to walk for your daily dose of exercise, make sure you bend your elbows while you're walking. Doing this will make you swing your arms faster and in turn you'll move your legs faster. Not only will you either finish your work out sooner or go further, but you'll burn even more calories while you're doing it!
