I can understand why some here are tired of CP, he obviously draws a lot of attention to himself. what I think comes off wrong is people that seem to imply being a 3rd down back means he's done. Kevin Faulk, who was never even a starter, has made a career of being a 3rd down rb in NE. He's 33 or 34!

If CP can keep his tude in check & play for a reasonable salary (he ain't gettin big bucks anywhere else) he could be here for 3-4 more solid years playing as a 3rd down back. He's as good as any in the nfl at picking up the blitz, he's a better blocker than our TEs.
