Could it be more serious than we thought?

Panthers' DeAngelo Williams sits out

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams has missed practice with a foot injury.

Williams sat out Wednesday after hobbling off the field in the final minute of Sunday's win over San Francisco. Coach John Fox provided no update on his condition.

After rushing for more than 1,100 yards last season, Williams has been held to 367 yards on 87 carries in six games this season.

The Panthers were still without right tackle Jeff Otah, who hasn't played or practiced this season because of a sore knee.

Defensive end Tyler Brayton missed practice Wednesday for a personal matter, but Fox says he'll return Thursday.

The Panthers also placed reserve linebacker Jamar Williams on season-ending injured reserve with a neck injury, replacing him on the 53-man roster by signing linebacker Abdul Hodge.

we will be fine. If we gotta run Stewart/Goodson that is plenty of punch. Stewart could probably use some heavy reps to finally get the ball rolling.

Stewart needs the O line to be top shape for him to be effective though. DWill at least managed a little something on the outside. Not sure if any amount of practice will improve that O-line much more without Otah.

Maybe we can just use Stewart as a receiver again though and hope no one sees him.:D

well if it is just Stewart maybe they pull some guys out of the box....that is why the OL looks like crap. Fox has said it is pointless to watch film on opponents b/c all are using the same blueprint. If the Rams do what everyone else has done.....the game again will come down to the pass and the Rams asking us to hit WRs in single coverage.

You know, now that I think about it, I'm actually kind of ok with that. Could work out for the better. I want to see another 41 passing attempts and if DWill isn't 100% it bodes well for that.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
