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.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
