No

im SURE if DWill was our oNLY RB he would be in this week.

But with a finished season, and Stewart the chance to rush for 1000 yards, why put Williams in there and risk a bigger injury?

Hell he was walking around fine after it happened in the game last week, and he isnt wearing a brace.

i THINK they just want to see what Stewart can do, rather that means they trade him for a #1 or Williams, I consider it an evaluation move.

AND to increase his value (1000 yards) and the legacy of the panthers (With 2 1000 yard rushers)

...or williams is really hurt. he can walk, but can't run like he usually would...like ladainian tomlinson a season or 2 ago.

if he was a downhill runner he would be able to play thru it. that's how stewart's been able to perform on his injuries.

keep in mind, williams was out 3 weeks his rookie season with a sprained ankle. this kind of recover time is normal for him.

Stewart has a nagging injury also....if they were resting guys just to be safe....I think Stewart would be on the shelf also. I think Williams ankle is just messed up. Fox needs all the wins he can get and imo isn't worried about saving a stud for next year when he might not be here. 6-10 won't look pretty.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
