Now that the Panthers are 2-2, I think the odds of CMC getting shelved are pretty much 0%. If we were still winless when he was ready, then maybe. He is eligible to return after this week, and week 6 will be 4 weeks from the injury. Even if we are 2-4 or 2-5, I think he still plays. Atlanta generally always has our number, but I actually think we beat them this weekend to move to 3-2. They just are not good at all.
