McCluster is better than Jones. I would rather see DMC and McClain than any Jones.
What's McCluster averaging 7ypc now? I know that won't last but shit. Better than Jones. |

It's not hard to average 7 YPC when you get the ball on draws in passing situations and reverses.

At this point McCluster's ceiling is Derrick Blaylock, with the exception that he'll never score 4 TDs in a game.

You have to hope that McCluster's ceiling is Darren Sproles.

They do have it isolate to the last 6" before he hits the ground as the time when he fumbles and he has worked specifically on that. They think its a technique issue. I think the bigger reason they didnt want to give him the ball down the stretch is because they are trying to limit his workload to 10-12 touches per game and recognize his size as a reason that has to be closely monitored. Who knows though ![]() Quote:
Through 3 games, him averaging such a high number is impressive. You not wanting to post his ranking on PFF as a running back tells me that he is probably ranked in the top 5... |

If we get Luck, a guy like Darren Sproles to go with the rest of the offensive weapons we have can be quite lethal. |

![]() No it can't, you idiot. That's literally 90 percent of McCluster's carries - draws and reverses. Not comparable to Charles whatsoever.

It's not. He's not a good returner and he's not good at making people miss.

I like McCluster. Are you mad because they used a 2nd round pick on him? I think he went a bit early, but I think he was going in the 2nd round to somebody. I think sometime this season he'll have a break out game, I know it's hard when Cassel is the QB, but I think he's quick and surprisingly tough.

I do agree that it wasn't an accident Jones got the 3rd down draw to secure the FG, as stupid as that was. I don't think McCluster can be Sproles, but I do think you are going to far to the extreme in how good he can be. He has had bad moments, but I think he can be a decent compliment to our offense when everyone is healthy. Doesn't have to be either "he is awesome" or "he sucks". |

I cant find a link showing exact numbers, but out of a single back formation he averaged 7.2 yards per carry last year and out of every other formation combined he only averaged 4.35 Obviously Im not gonna say more than 20% of those runs were draws, but I bet a lot of them were and that he averaged about 10 on them and that it effected his overall average quite a bit. |
