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 Panthers Huddle Offseason Special

      I'll be patiently waiting to see what OL additions we snatch off the waiver wire.

      Look don't get me wrong here. I'm not arguing it's going to just change his arm talent overnight. I'm just saying doing anything on the physical front after the GM who stuck his neck out for him over the concerns around his physical traits got fired is better than doing nothing. That's another layer. It could easily be argued overall he needed to add at least 10 pounds not just for the sake of working in the pocket and not going down so easily but let's be honest eventually no matter how much we invest in the OL he's going to get hit some and those hits will add up. His frame as it stands is only going to absorb so much over a 17 game season. Oh definitely good or bad we will have to run a lot of under center stuff. Bryce will either look good or flounder. But our offense will remain stagnant if we just keep running shotgun plays 90% of the time. You're telegraphing your offense otherwise. That's why I'm not giving Chuba Hubbard too hard of a time over his YPC last year. We weren't fooling anyone. We'll see what Canales has cooked up. It better be pretty damn clever.

      Why would a team ever not be aggressive in improving the roster? It may look different from year to year but even the best rosters churn at the bottom. That's a no-brainer.
