DeAngelo easily one of the top ten backs in NFL history..stats don't lie. From www.coldhardfootballfacts.com

Fantasy Man: Carolina’s DeAngelo Williams

Cold, Hard Football Facts for August 16, 2010

Did you see DeAngelo Williams Thursday night, in Carolina’s 17-12 loss at Baltimore in the first exhibition contest for both teams?

He got only a handful of touches, but the results were sharp and quick and explosive, and a great portent of things to come – once again – for the Panthers running back.

Williams carried the ball five times, but turned those limited carries into 33 yards – an impressive 6.6 average per attempt against a club that consistently fields the toughest run defense in football (Baltimore was No. 1 last year in run defense, allowing 3.43 YPA).

Fantasy fans – those of you inclined to participate in imaginary fake football – should take notice. So should all fans around the NFL. After all, Williams is poised to do things in 2010 that only two of the elite ball carriers in history have ever accomplished. (Fantasy fans should also check out our new league this year, too.)

To be honest i thought he was a bust after his 1st two seasons. Foster was the #1 back and I liked him except for his fumble problems. DWill has exploded the last two years and I see no reason for him to slow down. Having Stewart only helps him stay healthy longer

I agree he is one of the top backs in the NFL, but I don't see him breaking that record this year. I hope he does because I drafted him in my fantasy league, but Stewart has shown major improvement and will get a bunch of carries; especially in the 2nd half once the defense is tired. He will be the Marion Barber from a couple of years ago that gets the majority of the carries in the 4th qtr., when the defense is tired and will crush people.

I hope Stewart doesnt take away his goaline carries, and Dwill still gets about 15-20 carries a game. Fox has a tendenacy to want to throw when we should run. Just look at the Buffalo game last year, and the Arizona playoff game

    • Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.
    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
