BUT CAM CAN'T CHECKDOWN TO HIS RBS!! HE NEVER DOES!!!

 

 It wasn't a good hands day for running back Jonathan Stewarticon-article-link.gif, but his perseverance paid off. After he dropped a second pass early, he got an earful from linebacker Thomas Davisicon-article-link.gif, who barked, "You left your hands in the building, Stew!

Stewart spent the subsequent special teams period catching ball after ball on the sideline from running backs coach Jim Skipper and pro scouting assistant Jonathan Fields. Lo and behold, Stewart dropped his next opportunity as well but then secured one soon after.

"Good job, Stew," Shula said.

 

 

I wouldn't write off Stewart because of one un padded practice. We have all seen him catch the ball in real games. He doesn't do it a lot, but he can. CMC will be a much bigger target in the passing game anyway.

Fozzy is legit garbage at being a checkdown back, and that's not Stew's forte either.

Just stop with your narrative that Cam sucks, because you honestly make yourself look stupid.

Who in the hell said Cam sucks? All I'm saying is that Stewart can catch better than what he showed in practice today. Stop being so damn sensitive.

I've been looking for it to no avail and I can't remember if the link was through the huddle or not. There was an All-22 film break down that highlighted the myth that Cam doesn't check down. If someone knows what I'm talking about, post the link please. Cam does a pretty decent to average job checking down to his RBs though.

After 10 years in the league, a drop is not a good look.  You think Stew is gonna magically become Marshal Faulk or Arian Foster(healthy)?  

Stew is a RB, a tough to tackle grinder that is better suited to take a hand off than a check down.

He can do it, but I'd rather see him between the tackles than in the flat.  Stew is a beast but let's just call it what is.

70% career catch rate and it was 77% the one season that we actually made a real effort to feature him as a receiver.

Faulk's was 76% and Foster's was 72%.

Faulk is by far the best receiving RB that ive seen in my lifetime.

Stewart has 154 career receptions. He will be fine. He obviously won't be the #1 target but everybody already knows that. Or at least I hope they do. And I'm not trying to knock Cam by defending Stewart's ability to catch a damn football. Some people here are just so far up Cam's ass that they think any comment that isn't a compliment of Cam, must be an insult against him when it's really not.

Yep, seems like people forget that Stew caught 47 passes for 413 yards (with a 77% catch rate) under Chud (with Cam throwing to him) and then Shula stopped using him as a receiver.

So one season is the standard not the anomaly? Just for comparison sakes Peterson (who many consider a bad receiving back) has 5 seasons with over 200 yards receiving, Stewart has 1.

I'm not saying that Stew is Marshall Faulk when it comes to receiving. All I'm saying is that he performed very well in that department during the lone season that we made an effort to feature him as a receiver.

Peterson has received 40+ targets in five seasons, Stew only one. Peterson averages 33.5 targets per season, Stew 24.5. That's over 35% more targets per season,so it's a little unfair to pick an arbitrary number like 200 receiving yards to use as a viable measuring stick to compare the two.

The part that's worrisome is that Shula feels one out of four isn't bad.. yikes!

    • Went to school in MD when this came out. Dance floor got CRAZY when this joint came on!
    • They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.   
    • There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
