Well since GoPlagerism is touting my post in is signature, I figured I would start a countdown thread to see how we stack up on the touches..

Rushing 4 for 42
Receiving 5 for 25

Week 2
Rushing 8 for 51
Receiving 4 for -2

Week 3

Week 6
BYE

The funny thing is that McCluster is only in for a handful of plays on offense. That makes it easy for a defense to key in on him when he actually is in, since that's when he usually gets the ball. McCluster just isn't good enough to be a threat anywhere. Maybe if he gained 50 pounds.......

I would use McCluster primarily as a punt and KO returner. Especially now since we know that Arenas can play out of the backfield.

His rookie statistics.

When he showed the ability to return kicks.

Hammock Parties · 10-23-2011, 10:43 PM

You will also note, Hootie, that when Sproles first started playing regularly on offense, he immediately contributed meaningfully as a receiver in 2008.

We have been force feeding McCluster and he can't do jack with the ball in his hands.

Yeah, and now he doesn't even return kicks, because he hasn't done shit else as a returner.

Sproles was a good kick returner his rookie year. Then when he started touching the ball regularly on offense he made even more plays (2008).

This isn't hard to see but you like that little midget pipsqueak bust supreme so you want to argue...

I agree he hasn't lived up to expectations and that we have really tried to get him going and it hasn't worked that well. I just disagree that its time to pull the rip cord. Especially with Charles out for the season and Jones being terrible.

Hootie · 10-23-2011, 10:45 PM

mccluster would be sproles (or comparable) if he were in the Saints offense

this offense isn't mccluster friendly...plain and simple

can't judge a guy who doesn't fit in

McCluster won't be on this roster next season. We need a backup RB with quickness who isn't 170 lbs and we will find one.

Isn't his name Charles? If Battle keeps getting better, I am fine with Charles/Battle/McCluster. We have a ton of other holes to fill before 3rd RB.
