I won't be worried yet. I think he just needs a little lit under him...

he missed a lot of conditioning time because of his injury- he may need the rest of pre-season to get into shape.

That being said, he is one of the keys to the season, so if he's struggling, it's not a good sign at all.

I appreciate the thread on camp. You were there and I wasn't but your own words don't sound too good.

"Perry Fewell was getting on McCargo's tail the whole practice yelling at him to be chasing the runner and not give up. On the next play I heard him yell at McCargo that he should just leave and go ride the bike."

Do we really have to light a fire under a guy that we moved up in the draft to get?

He's had good and bad plays so far. Sounds like he's struggling with the heat and lack of conditioning, after missing so much time rehabbing his injured foot.

just because he was getting chewed out doesn't mean I am ready to say i am worried yet or will label him a bust. I think Fewell was just trying to light a fire. Different players need different kind of motivation. He did give Mccargo a little praise on another play but he seemed to really riding mcCargo a fair amount.

i think the reasonable thing to do is to panic and overreact

It sounds like Fewell is doing enough worrying for all of us.

Well either himself or Kyle Williams needs to step up and be the force in the middle. If not, I think you can say that Marv & Co. screwed the pooch when it came to shoring up the D-line

He's fine. Stop analyzing the little stuff and wait for preseason to evaluate for yourself.

first it's don't react to what happens in OTA's- wait til camp.
then it's don't react to what happens in camp- wait til pre season.
Then it's don't react to what happens in preseason- wait til the games start.
then it's too late.

I guess what I'm getting at: why does everyone expect performance during real games to be different than performance during camp and pre-season? That's about as close to real as it gets.

Make sure every team either cuts or doesn't pick up Larry Johnson, Terry Glenn, Terrell Owens, Randy Moss, and Frank Gore. Those guys aren't going to be doing much, if anything, this preseason so we might as well count them out for the regular season.

I don't understand. Everything I've read thus far on him has been positive. Or is this thread from last year? :scratch:

Op is right about his conditioning and it's starting to show but should improve as we get near the end of TC.

You shouldn't be surprised about this thread at all. Up to this camp report, it was looking like he was showing real progress. One bad day and now it's 'time to start worrying about McCargo'.

um, if they're not playing in pre season, then there is no basis for comparison.

But for players who ARE playing in preseason, why would you expect that they will be better once the "pre" is replaced with "regular"? It's still the same guy trying to do the same things.

You're comparing guy's that have proven their worth, to a guy who hasn't. Maybe you should find another way to express your point. It's still early, maybe the team is just being cautious because they want McCargo to ease back into full speed instead of rush back into full speed, just a thought.

I personally thought he's had a pretty good camp at times. He's shown his speed at getting to the QB or in the backfield. Where he has struggled is in the run blocking.....But I think he'll get better with it. :up:

I think he will too. I recall him getting into the backfield to stop the runner a few times in various camp reports.
