Thank you for making your first post (and topic) a useful one. I'm sure it reflects the quality of all your future posts.

And sorry we're so hard on people here at the huddle. We aren't very friendly this season. :(

But to respond, there's no way you voluntarily let go of Williams, unless you want to see him become a hall of fame player somewhere else.

depending on how next season goes, I wouldn't blame him if he wanted to walk away. 2nd highest yard per carry average and he still isn't getting the amount of carries he deserves. It makes me sick knowing Chris Johnson gets 25'ish +/- a few carries a game, and we're lucky if Fox gives Williams/Stewart 25 carries COMBINED. He has the potential to go for 2k yards if given a f**kin chance..

I'm not saying stop splitting carries, I'm saying we should be calling 35+ runs a game, if not more.

With that said, I would be devastated if Williams walked :[

depends on who the management is after the season..i know shanahan wouldn't give a crap about trying to keep him..all RBs are expendable.

Maybe his exit from Denver helped him see the error of his ways. Last year the lack of a rushing attack really hurt them toward the end of the season. They used to rely on the blocking scheme but could have benefited from a workhouse like they had with Terrell Davis back in 1998-99. Which is what Williams is to us. A workhorse with breakaway speed.

After looking at this article, I was reminded of how many 1000 yard rushers Denver has produced since Shanahan went there in 1995.

Still I can't see us going after Shanahan. Although we tried before to hire the super bowl coach and hopefully learned from the failure.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
