I saw in the game thread, where fans are calling Chubba nothing special.  Not a feature back. Yet all he does is run through defenses. 

Time to stop talking down about him.  I knownwhy Stewart loves him. Same reason I do. 

I understand it, they’re wrong, but I get why some people don’t see him as a star. 
He’s not a “big play” guy.  He doesn’t have break away speed.  He’s not shifty or elusive and he’s not a bruising power back. 
Hes just good.  Hard nosed, consistent, lunch pail, grind it out back.

That won’t appeal to some fans but I fuggin love that poo.

I remember when Chuba was a JAG with bricks for hands. The dude has put in the work and developed into a top back in the NFL.

Chuba did have oven mitts, but he was never JAG. I've said it for years. He was solid when we didn't have a line. I said, it would be nice to see what he can do behind a real line? Now we know. 

" JAG"and "Chuba" don't belong in the same sentence. You hear me?

Was I hearing things today or did I catch the crowd saying “Chuuuuuu” after he would make a play?

If that’s becoming a thing, I would like that very much.

There were chants of Chuuuuubaaaa ringing through the stands today. It was glorious.

Chuba is not a game changer or breaker but he has become a complete back. He runs downhill and hard. 

He can now catch the ball.

He can block.

And he has a constant running motor even after getting paid. 

I was one of those that thought his first few years he was a jag. But he has grown and impressed me and I'm happy the panthers signed him to an extension.

He doesn't have the size of a big bruiser, although his running style is very blunt. He has great balance and vision.   Which is the most important things in my eyes to ANY running back.  He's not fast, yet he consistently breaks 10 plus yard runs. 20 plus yard runs.  

The dude is a load. Add to the fact he can catch out of the backfired.

This is a back you absolutely build an offense around.

He still needs help. 

Can never ever have enough good running backs.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
