They both just look slow, but we're making it work. Really want to see James and Guerrendo play more if anything happens to CMC.
Honestly, he has had limited opportunities to get it going. He needs more carries before we pass judgment. I would love to see more two back sets, two TEs sets as well. What I don't want to see is juice running the ball. Not with IG on the sidelines.., Juice blocks well and catches a pass or two and that's fine. We need to be able to run the ball… short stuff, screens and the such are getting us downfield so that works but imagine if we also got the run game going. Ricky returning, kittle healthy and BA should help the running game if our OL could hold for longer developing plays. They struggle with that…. Short stuff they look decent.
For being so big, he goes down so easy sometimes..

Does he not know the plays yet or dude is just soft?
For a guy we traded for, been completely underwhelmed by his abilities. Probably a reason Redskins moved on from him.

That said, I totally get it. RBs get pounded and a ton of wear on them. So it's no wonder some/most of them loose some passion for the punishment.

I just don't want to kill CMC by week 9. I'm hoping some of our rookies come back strong. He looks like a physical runner… I guess it sucks even more when you're watching Jordan Mason do good things for the Vikings and how he would compliment CMC. But I understand it's money issue.
I think everybody just looks bad behind our offensive line. Either that or he's not clicking yet with us. But so far not much is happening on that front. I don't see him doing much. Not putting that all on him. Look at anybody behind our line. Getting hit in the backfield and dragging people to the line of scrimmage for even money and not a loss is actually kind of impressive.

You nailed it!
Saw some good things from him this game. Nothing amazing, but from what I saw he was running hard.

Damn he looks bad! Miss Jordan Mason, minus the fumbles.
He needs more playing time!
Very good game! Hoping he spells CMC a little more here and there as Robinson has shown he's effective and also to give CMC more of a break. Just isn't worth the risk of CMC wearing down with such a high usage rate as there's still a lot of season left, including hopefully the playoffs.

Last 3 games have been markedly improved.

I really don't get the whole guy shows potential then immediately gets 0 playing time. See Robinson, gurrendo, tonges, lucas....

Dude come in and make immediate impact then get benched as soon as possible.

Love him on that toss play.
Cannot believe that he is only getting 5 carries a game. I mean he is averaging 4.8 a carry and runs very tough. I have heard he is a decent pass catcher. CMC finally to 3.5 yards a carry. CMC is killing teams in the passing game.
