Vikes are still better without AP right?
And the Badford trade was a good one too... :P

Oh yeah they sure are missing his 54 carries for 95 yards in 2016 and inability to block and catch

That number is actually slightly generous. I didn't realise how bad his YPC is this year before the injury. It's 50 yards on 31 attempts for a massive 1.6 yards per carry

Surely you don't think they're better off with Matt Asiata and Jerick McKinnon as opposed to one of the best RB's of all time?

Also, it's not like their offensive line can block right now. But having AP in the backfield as a running threat would help!

I included his failure in the playoff game last year too (50 yards on 31 carries) that probably was what lost them the game

MA and JK going at 3 yards/carry which is well better than AP was and provide actual pass block and catching threats

YPC tells about 20% of the story. There's a lot more to consider.

The only benefit for not having AP on the team is that they don't have to pay him and can spend money elsewhere

Yeah that was very classy :)



Cmon Carolina! Need a win tonight :-\
I just saw a little piece on Cam, with highlights moments from this season in the background. We've lost 3 games by a field goal being kicked against us in the final seconds, and another in week 1 when Gano missed at the end.

It's gonna happen again, isn't it?

Haha shower, 13-23 now. It is going to happen. We have no Centre Kalil injured and the backup inactive, shower about to hit the fan now :-\ Still 11 minutes left as well and it's Drew Brees


Okay flower this. Kalil, Benjamin, Addison, Johnson and now Kuechly injured at some point. Saints moving the ball easily too :'(

And Kuechly's injury is the worst of the lot... Some kind of knee injury... Carted off and crying as it's happening. I think his year is done :-\

Turns out Kuechly is being tested for concussion, might miss a game or two but much better outcome than the knee that looked like it was.
