Quote:I know that sounds right theoretically, but in practice McCaffrey stayed healthier while carrying the ball more and catching the a lot ball more. Add in all of those special teams touches too and I'm not sure that's even a fair point to make. Bigger doesn't necessarily mean healthier or able to withstand more punishment. Often it means taking bigger, more forceful, and more direct hits...and missing more time.

 

I think of McCaffrey on the Patriots, and I see 2000 yards from scrimmage, running and receiving.   I think of McCaffrey on the Jaguars, and I see the ball sailing over his head, or hitting him in the feet.     I'm sorry to say it, but if we're rolling with Blake this year, he needs to hand off more, not throw more.   I love McCaffrey, but if we're rolling with Blake, we need Fournette more than we need McCaffrey.   McCaffrey would be wasted on this team.  You have to have the right tool for the job at hand.
