It helps if you've got other players you can complement him with. Then you can use him to draw attention away.

...

That is unless you have those players but don't have coaches smart enough to know how to use them.

CMC made this offense predictable. I am really interested in seeing what happens when he isn't the focal point.

When is the last time he had a 50+yard run? I'll save you the Google search, it's been 3 years.

When's the last time he had holes you cam drive a truck through?

Let's the last time we had a decent line and serviceable QB he had

40+ yd off tackle td

84 yd up gut td

76 yd up gut td

58 yd up gut td

I'm probably forgetting some that year.

We don't have a home run hitter anymore

He is gone now the past is the past.... Today was the best blocking we have seen in years though.

Same thing. Our entire offense was run through CMC by coaches design. They finally had to do something different because they had no choice. 

Pretty much.  Really interested to see how Shanahan uses him with Deebo and Kittle.  I mean, that's a fun group to have an offense with, and you don't need to run it through any of them explicitly either.  We just did it all so wrong with Rhule.  Turner was a bit better in 17-18 but still not my favorite.  Still though, they used Samuel, Moore, CMC, it was a more complete offense.  And it made Kyle Allen look good.  It wasn't some forced jamboree through one guy that Rhule did.

He doesn't have the same burst he used to have. RB's have a short shelf life and injuries have taken their toll. He's still a great player but he's not a "home run hitter" anymore either. Moving on from him was 100% the correct move given what we got in return. If you're hanging your hat on plays from three years ago idk what to tell you.

We didnt have a home run hitter with him, he is not the same guy he was a few years ago. 

We got the best possible outcome with CMC, we got something of value for him before his value is completely diminished, thats what smart teams do.

The difference was replacing Elf with Bozeman. He had the communication and pre snap calls on the OL working better than Elf could ever hope to do. Bozeman has the OL to work with and makes the job on the QB and RB so much easier. PJ and the RBs were able to be patient all game long.

CMC would have owned this game with Bozeman at center and PJ at QB.

Not having Robby getting targets was a huge reason for improvement in play production in the passing game too.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
