To use a 1st round pick on a running back, he's got to be elite, not just okay...
I don't see elite, do you?

Question: on was Chris Carson hurt or did you just go in another direction?
Pete Carroll response: no ... he was a little gassed from working on special teams and helping us ... we had some guys out ... so he had to kinda double dipped and really I wanted to see how we could do with Rashaad .... give him some playing time .... get him out there.

Again - the information comes directly from PC but it was false in the sense that he played TWO plays on ST in second half
He was taken out in the 2nd quarter
Are you seriously believing that a professional football player has two plays in him for 2q+

He either has an injury issue, a conditioning issue, or a mentality issue.
Can we stop pretending he's some sort of all-pro?

Nobody is saying that he is beast mode two, we're saying that he is the much better back than Penny is at this point in time. There is no arguing that fact right now.olyfan63":12x6k3fn said:Hasselbeck":12x6k3fn said:He didn't deserve 5 touches in that half, much less all the action.

Penny actually understands the game and is a much smarter cat than CMike. Bad comparison.
I love Chris Carson's game but let's not pretend he is BeastMode II.

Opinions about game decisions are expected.
But, lets be accurate and complete about what another human being actually said.

As for your point about Penny understanding the game and being smarter than CMike, I'm not so sure. He had issues learning the playbook and picking up things in the Senior Bowl practices from reports I read. Whenever he is on the field Wilson has to direct him and personally show him where to go. Was never psyched for this pick. As many have said out he looks like a first rounder version of Micheal Turbin.
