Jonathan Stewart #1 Elusive HB w13-17


The Huddler

Recommended Posts

People sleeping on Stewart. For those of you naysayers citing "age," understand he's split carries for most of his career, so he should be more durable than most RBs at that age.

Durable and Stewart don't go together, honestly. He's never completed a full season as the lead back due to injury. I've always wondered why he didn't try to lose some bulk to ease the pressure on his ankles. Looks like he's done that this off-season. He's a beast when healthy though. Can't take that away from him.

Posted a week ago showing he had by far the most broken tackles in the league. Stew also showing off his elusiveness as well. Pretty impressive. I think the new additions on offense will open it up more for him. 

 

J-Stew's vision is pretty good, imagine him not having 8 man box consistently and OL that can block. 

Hopefully his Madden rating goes up 1,000 + yds season!!!!

The traditonal run game

Hopefully he helps us make a deep run in the playoffs. That seems a lot more important to me than if his Madden ratings goes up. Apparently our priorities are very different...

Not sure durability is the word I'd use. But I would definitely say he's saved alot of his prime atheticism by splitting carries. 

If Stewart went to a team to be the #1 guy he would have easily been a top 5 RB. He does look slimmer which I'm sure would only improve his game. He's probably my favorite Panther back in team history now.

The Panthers have enough talent on offense for there to be absolutely zero excuses this year.

 We always really have. Besides the Oline, I'll give that one a pass. The problems were never weapons despite Cam fanboys ranting that will likely have yet another excuse with another down year. There are 4 points for offensive failure before we get to weapons.

1. Shula - never used Cam correctly and did not design plays correctly.

2. Oline - Disaster

3. Injuries - Yea people will bring up going to the SB will TG as he #1 but our first round WR was injured. We also spent a high pick on Funchess. These are weapons that were added with a high cost.

4. Top defense/scheme  - means less playmakers. Until now this was the plan and usually is for most NFL teams. There are only a couple who neglect defensive to build an offense and not vice versa.

Stewart, healthy KB, Olsen and Cam (throw in a Shockey, or Tolbert in his prime) is plenty to do better than a losing season when you are a defensive minded team. That's two 1,000 receivers and a 1,000 yard back and an elite, top 5 QB. Please list teams who have that to work with. Again wrong scheme, wrong offensive coordinator and shitty oline is the issue.

A lack of weapons is really an excuse in the sense people use it around here. The lack of weapons comes in terms of our OC and dumbass scheme. The real issue the scheme we had, and the weapons we didn't have for a scheme Shula should have been implementing all along.

This year weapons were added but that's not why things should change or get better because it wasn't the issue. The weapons added were brought in to change up Shula's schemes and play calling. That is the change that will improve tge Panthers. It will be interesting if Shula really can evolve and adapt and the online can hold and if he can't and they don't I hope people can recognize that instead of yet another lack of weapons BS. Because we have always had plenty of weapons.

That is ridiculous. Ignore that the general consensus in 2015 was that we had the worse group of wide receivers in the league bar none. Yet we lead the league in points.  Ignore that Shula built the offense around Cam and his strengths. Shula taught Cam everything  heknows about offense  Ignore that 13 out of the past 15 first 3 round drafts picks under Gettleman before this year were on defense not offense.

Truth is all those accomplishments on offense you noted were because of Cam and Shula maximizing what talent he has been given. When have we ever had a rookie receiver over 1000 yards before Shula. How many 1000 yard seasons did Olsen have before coming to Carolina and Shula's offense. Which coordinator in our history has ever had the number 1 offense in points scored which is the only stat that counts? The general consensus here and everywhere is that Cam has not had enough weapons around him. Shula critics like you seem to be the only one skewing the facts to fuel your criticisms.

I think for the first time since Cam has been here you are right.  This is the only draft under Gettleman where he concentrated on offense instead of defense and spent money upgrading the line instead of counting on guys like Byron Bell, Chandler and Remmers to protect our greatest asset.

Still a little concerned about depth at some positions in the event of injuries but we will see how things develop. Hopefully we avoid multiple injuries to the same position like center last year.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
