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.

      They use stats to create the basis of their grading system but the stats based on the outcome of the plays (that aggregate into what we football fans call "stats") are not incorporated into the grade. That's the best I can do in terms of explaining this to you. I've tried, every link from PFF has tried, yet you just keep on keeping on. LOL

      PFF uses the term "context normalized-scoring," which is based upon statistics. Hell, any serious metric or analytic systems are based upon stats and expectations, and looks at what players do against those expectations, but If you don't think that stats play any part in a players grades, be wrong. At the end of the day, it's heady anyway, so everyone is not going to understand everything. I'm done with this conversation for now. But just know, it's OK to be wrong.

      It's hilarious watching you crash out while being completely wrong. Every link you posted regarding player grades specifically told you that they aren't incorporating stats into these grades, that it's based on their evaluation individual plays. That sent you scouring the internet where you came back with soccer grades as some type of gotcha before you shifted to pass protection grades where you misunderstood that they were using stats to create the basis of their grading system but not in the actual actual creation of the player grades. Pointing that out sent you back to the internet to dig some more where you came back with their "Advanced Coverage Grade" metric which is separate from their player grade.
