Stewart probably only averaged around 20 carries a game before getting injured. If a back can't handle that load, it's hard to consider them a featured back. Plenty of backs handle around 20 carries a game without being injured. Sure, every one has nagging pains this time of the season, but if it's keeping you out of games - multiple games, then it's more than that. 

RB is the single most ingured position in the NFL. You can have your opinion 8f you want, but it doesn't change the facts.  

Stew's running style, means more contact. 

These are facts of life in the NFL, not opinion. 

If the Panthers weren't saving him for the playoffs, he'd  probably be playing this week. 

I'm fine with them resting Stew, and so should you. 

Good Stew always gets better with rest. ;)

 

P.S. 242 carries ÷ 13 games = 18.6153846154 carries a game.  Sounds to me like you are splitting hairs to try to prove your point.

 

It's absolutely laughable that you stated that Stewart hasn't been the feature back for the Panthers. We wouldn't be undefeated without him.

Not splitting hairs. 18.6 is roughly 20 - actually less which further proves my point. And my only point is that he could really be injured. Stewart is a featured back when healthy, but he isn't if he's injured. And if the team can't depend on around 20 carries without injury, then it's difficult to label him THE featured back. He obviously needs someone to split a large number of carries with, because 20 isn't enough to get this team through a playoff run against the seahawks and/or the cardinals.

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
