Three weeks into the NFL season and Christian McCaffrey is just killing it. Get a load of these five impressive stats through Week 3:CMC’s 428 yards from scrimmage through Week 3 are second in the NFL Jarius Wright Jersey , trailing leader Alvin Kamara by just two yardsHis 271 rushing yards make him the NFL’s third leading rusherHis 5.89 yards per carry ranks third in the NFL (minimum 30 attempts)McCaffrey’s 22 receptions ranks eighth in the league among all players, and second among running backsCMC has lost yards on just one of his 46 rushing attemptsMcCaffrey is proving to be the dual-threat weapon the Panthers envisioned when they drafted him No. 8 overall in 2017. But what’s even more impressive about his rushing statistics is that he’s doing this behind an offensive line which has missed starters Trai Turner, Daryl Williams, and Matt Kalil. While CMC has been the beneficiary of some solid blocking, he’s also done a great job slipping out of tackles or just running right over people. Rushing between the tacklesWhen you look deeper into CMC’s 5.89 yards per carry, he’s actually been more productive rushing between the tackles than around the edges. At the end of every game, NFL’s Next Gen produces a chart showing each rusher’s production between the tackles and around the edges. Here’s CMC’s Next Gen chart from his Week 3 game against the Bengals:NFL Next Gen StatsWhen combining this data with his Week 1 chart and his Week 2 chart, McCaffrey has rushed between the tackles 30 times for 190 yards this season, or a healthy 6.3 yards per carry. I think we can stop asking if he’s “too small” to productively run the ball between the tackles. There are other Christian McCaffrey Next Gen charts for your browsing pleasure, if you are so inclined, and it is here where you can see he has lost yards on just one rushing attempt this season.The trend may continueAfter a career-high 14 receptions in Week 2 followed by a career-high 184 rushing yards in Week 3 it’s no surprise CMC’s stats look pretty ridiculous right now. While he won’t keep setting new personal records every week, he should be able to sustain a very high level of production from scrimmage (rushing and receiving) for the rest of the season. It’s clear he’ll be on the field almost every snap and he’ll have ample opportunities with the ball in his hands. As the offensive line continues to both gel and get healthier, it looks like McCaffrey will get solid blocking in front of him this year. As a rookie in 2017, CMC performed well but didn’t have all the benefits of being the team’s feature back as he platooned with Jonathan Stewart. As Panthers fans, most of us got tired last year trying to defend why he was worth the No. 8 overall selection in the draft. That’s changed in 2018. Christian McCaffrey is going nuts through Week 3 and there’s no reason why he can’t continue producing at an elite level for the rest of the year. Plays to Love https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/Da_Norris-Searcy-Jersey , Plays to Hate (aka “P2L, P2H”) looks at the most significant plays in swinging momentum and impacting the eventual outcome of the game. There is always plenty to hate about NFL officiating, so we will only focus on the plays on the field, not the refs.Three plays to love1st Quarter 11:58 – Panthers 0, Buccaneers 0. Bucs ball 2nd-and-8 at TB 22The Situation: The Bucs and the Panthers had both gone three-and-out on their first possessions. Tampa Bay was now just beginning their second drive.The Play: Ryan Fitzpatrick overthrew his intended receiver by a country mile and the ball sailed right into the hands of Eric Reid for an easy interception. Reid returned the interception 39 yards down to the Tampa Bay 10 yard line, setting up an Alex Armah touchdown and an early 7-0 Panthers lead. 2nd Quarter 6:33 – Panthers 28, Bucs 7. Bucs ball 4th-and-9 at TB 26The Situation: The Panthers had scored touchdowns on four straight drives to jump out to a 28-7 lead midway through the second quarter. The Bucs were desperate to change momentum as they lined up to punt. The Play: The Bucs gambled on a high-risk, low-reward fake punt from deep in their own territory. Ben Jacobs pressured punter Bryan Anger on the throw while David Mayo deflected the pass. The Panthers took possession at the Tampa Bay 25 and scored yet another touchdown to go up 35-7. I think Tampa Bay’s coaching staff panicked here. Yes, Carolina’s offense was an avalanche at this point, but we all know how the second half played out. After the Panthers went up 35-7, the Bucs scored the next 21 points to narrow the gap to 35-28 early in the fourth quarter. What if Tampa Bay had just punted here? What if Carolina’s offense fell apart with 28 points instead of 35? What if the Bucs tied the game at 28-28 instead of still being down a touchdown? The second half could have played out very differently if Tampa just punts here, but that’s only a guess on my part. 4th Quarter 13:04 – Panthers 35, Bucs 28. Panthers ball 3rd-and-2 at CAR 33The Situation: The Panthers offense had gone ice cold. After scoring touchdowns on five straight drives to go up 35-7, Carolina’s offense went punt (three-and-out), punt (three-and-out) Greg Van Roten Color Rush Jersey , and turnover on downs (burned all three timeouts). In the meantime, Tampa Bay’s offense caught fire and cut the lead to 35-28. The Panthers had lost all momentum and were now facing the prospect of another three-and-out as they lined up for 3rd-and-2.The Play: Christian McCaffrey slipped out of the backfield and into the left flat and found himself open. Cam Newton hit him with a short pass and CMC motored 20 yards to the Tampa Bay 47. The third down conversion extended a drive that ended with a Curtis Samuel touchdown and a 42-28 Panthers lead. If the Panthers don’t convert here, they would have punted deep in their own territory with a seven point lead. Yes, there were more spectacular plays in this game including McCaffrey’s hurdle, Curtis Samuel’s double reverse, and Greg Olsen’s one-handed touchdown, but I think getting this first down was a huge momentum shifter to get the Panthers offense back on track. Three plays to hate2nd Quarter 0:19 – Panthers 35, Bucs 7. Bucs ball 4th-and-Goal at CAR 3The Situation: The Bucs had one final play to end the half to try to cut into the Panthers overwhelming 35-7 lead.The Play: O.J. Howard came in motion from left to right and used the momentum to just run away from Luke Kuechly in coverage. Howard scored an easy touchdown and made Luke look shockingly slow on the play. The play cut the Panthers lead to 35-14 at the half.3rd Quarter 4:25 – Panthers 35, Bucs 21. Panthers ball 1st-and-10 at CAR 41The Situation: After two three-and-outs to start the third quarter, the Panthers offense needed to get something going.The Play(s): I hated multiple plays on this entire drive and will pin these on Norv Turner and Ron Rivera. At the 4:25 mark the Panthers had to burn a timeout to prevent a delay of game. At 3:02 they burned their second timeout. At 2:58 they challenged a play and lost, thus losing their final timeout. At 2:09 the Panthers faced 4th-and-1 from the Tampa Bay 34 and converted with a Cam Newton sneak. However, Carolina was flagged for illegal motion and now faced 4th-and-6 from the Tampa Bay 38. Rivera went for it and Cam Newton’s underneath throw to Devin Funchess only gained two yards and the Panthers turned it over on downs. This sequence was a two minute clown show.3rd Quarter 0:18 – Panthers 35, Bucs 21. Bucs ball 3rd-and-17 at TB 14The Situation: Tampa Bay had reeled off 14 straight points to cut Carolina’s lead to 35-21 near the end of the third quarter. The Panthers defense just needed to hold on 3rd-and-17 to stop theBucs momentum.The Play: This “Play to Hate” gets pinned squarely on defensive coordinator Eric Washington. Rather than staying at least somewhat aggressive, Washington went into a deep, soft zone. Both Eric Reid and Mike Adams were more than 20 yards off the line of scrimmage at the snap. Donte Jackson released Chris Godwin on a streak down the sideline and safety help over the top was nowhere to be seen. Godwin easily converted with a 25-yard gain. This drive ended with a touchdown to trim the Panthers lead to a sphincter-clenching 35-28. Just a horrible scheme by Washington. Closing it out and summing it upThe Panthers are 6-2 and that’s all that matters. They have the third best record in the NFC https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com , trailing the one-loss Los Angeles Rams (8-1) and New Orleans Saints (7-1). It might not always be pretty, but the Panthers just keep on winning. Let’s be happy with that. On offense, Newton and McCaffrey were brilliant. Greg Olsen is an old reliable security blanket. Curtis Samuel and D.J. Moore looked incredibly explosive with the ball in their hands. Blocking was generally solid. Play calling was creative. It’s all love when the offense hangs 42 points on a division rival. Defensively, Eric Washington’s soft defensive coverages on third-and-long has got to stop. In addition to the “Play to Hate” above (converting on 3rd-and-17), the Bucs also converted on a 3rd-and-15 in the first quarter. Be more aggressive, Eric! James Bradberry (with help from Eric Reid) was incredible in shutting down Mike Evans with just one catch on 10 targets. Donte Jackson came up with yet another clutch interception to seal the game. Mario Addison was a sack machine with a little help from his friends. I love the black-on-black uniforms. We are the Panthers. Panthers are black. More black-on-black uniforms please. The Panthers need to learn how to put teams away. This game never should’ve ended up 35-28 in the fourth quarter. That said, it’s hard to be unhappy with a 14-point win against a division rival.
