They will continue to do what they have all season unless stew gets injured or has problem with ball security multiple times a game (i.e. Falcons game)

Its frustrating to watch them continue to keep their head in the sand and not feed the hot hand. McCaffrey ended the day with over 8 yards a carry and they only gave Cap 1 chance to run while stewart is either getting stoned at the line or running for very minimal gains. He has no elusiveness left and not much speed. He can hit obvious big holes as was shown in the Miami game but he can't create jack poo on his own and thats a problem with a below average run blocking oline like ours.  

I call bullshit that McCaffreys not an every down back. He's gotten 15 carries only once in the whole season and other dudes that put the team on their back running get 20 or 25 on a very regular basis. Running back by committee is killing both his and stewarts rythm.

Well smaller guys like Faulk and Westbrook  could run And catch with multiple touches. Cmc is a grown man.

Why do people keep bringing this up without mentioning the fact that the majority of the carries were clock killing carries.  Almost any back is going to suffer when you are running and the opposing defense knows you are running.  This was almost the entire 4th quarter for Stew.

     Come on. Would 15 carries really be to much? I mean, we are not talking about 30 carries. I am sure CmC can handle the increased roll. Hellz, it should be something we need to do. Find out if he can do it. Or not?

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
