If you watched the games, and you believe Stewart is the reason why the running game sucks...please explain yourself.

I see Stewart being mentioned in cut threads, and dogged for this, that, and the other...but honestly, if you watched the games and you feel strongly that Stew has fallen off, or was the main reason why we couldn't run the ball, the floor is yours to explain your damn self.

 

This isn't a thread about his cap hit either. I feel he is catching a lot of poo for his salary, but it is being cloaked under this guise that he has "fallen off" or is "overrated."

 

You better bring the heat too: don't just post "he averaged only 3.8 per carry" or some BS like that.

Watch other teams with running games is eye opening.  They have these things call running games, and people called lead blockers.  And I know it's hard to believe but the running backs sometimes don't have people in the backfield and sometimes don't even get touched before they are 4 yards downfield.

Exactly. The only reason its slightly better with cam is because he's a beast and with the qb running its 11 on 11.

Boom. And when Cam is a threat it allows Stew to get a little breathing room on read plays, making up for our poo line.

A big reason for fall off is Cam getting killed out there, and then becoming one dimensional without the threat to run.

Oher went down, Remmers is Remmers, our ProBowl C went down and Tolbert/Dickerson block for poop. 

It may not be sexy keeping Stewy but it looks likely he is coming back. Add in a young HB in the draft. Sign a real FB and a decent TE2 that can block. I would be very happy at that point. Not seeing our QB being our #1 option would also be great.

So he is not the best HB playing the game or will not play every game. The dude blocks and runs hard. I have a problem with Fozzy and Cam A-P. They are not pulling their weight.

People on Cam's down year: it's because of his poo offensive line

People on Stew's down year: he's washed, time to move on

Seems to be a bit of a double standard here.  And also I completely agree a big reason Cam had a down season is because his supporting cast was so bad and that includes the offensive line.  But the same logic should apply to Stew.  Our offensive line was terrible, can't expect anyone to find much success running behind it.  But also, Stew is 31 with an injury history and 1 year left on his deal.  We need a replacement soon

It isn't that he sucks it is that he stays hurt. You cannot rely on him for a full season.

The injury issues are overblown primarily due to his missing significant numbers of games during a stretch of 2 seasons or so.  Over his career, he has played in about  80% of his potential games, numbers not that different from the average for running backs.  

 

That being said, he needs a backup and eventual replacement.  If Cameron Artis Payne can't get it done, then we need someone else.

Obviously CAP is not a replacement. Stewart stays hurt and that is not overblown IMHO. It is what it is though. If we rely on him to stay healthy a full season we have no one to blame but ourselves when he goes down.

Dude.. all you say is "Stewart stays hurt"

Over and over through different threads you just keep blowing the same horn.

And that horn is based on how you feel about things and not actual fact.

OP says bring the heat... not some used up erroneous garbage.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)

      looks like the Lions and Bangles should forget about the playoffs, trade everyone they can, and start over.
