Would You Be Happy with Mike Goodson as the Future at RB?

[TylerDurden]

We've all raved about his performances for the most part this year including today's effort, and most felt the bromance after his performance in the preseason last year...

That being said, with all the uncertainty of our players on expirings, how would you feel about Goodson being 'the man' going forward?

I love DWill and would want him to retire as a Panther, if possible. But, we're looking at having to let one of these guys go out of DWill, Stewart, or Goodson because there's just too much talent in the backfield when they're all healthy. So who would it be?

[Double34Trouble28]

Not alone, but as a part of a two-headed attack, yes.

[PandaMan]

If he can get a grip on his fumbling problem (pun definitely intended) then I'd be all for it. He looked sharp today minus the fumble, and has looked good pretty much all season.

[Dpantherman]

Id like to keep him, Williams, and Stewart, and find a way to incorporate all 3 in our offense. Of course, that would take a competent coaching staff with an imaginative outlook on offense.

[Swan]

Goodson? Idk.

[Mother Grabber]

He's not being used properly by the single minded morons who run this team. I would love to keep him as someone who lines up in the slot and comes out of the back field into space.

[TylerDurden]

Yeah, I would like that too. But, I just don't know how we can do it and if all three guys would be willing to stick around to share carries long-term. I think of the Cowboys and their 3 RBs... I honestly, don't believe each one of them could be the full-time starter by himself on another team.

With our guys, thinking objectively as possible, I DO think each of them could start on another team. Ideally, I'd like to keep all of them but I just don't know how long we can keep Goodson under the radar without involving him more for the long-term.

[IceWhiteice]

him and stewart let D-Will go

[KillerKat]

If i had to choose between the 3, then Id have to say goodbye to Stewart. Williams still had a way better YPC average than Stewart this year with our awful line and play calling.

[Kakarot]

I like all 3, and wish all 3 could stay, but thats highly unlikely. If it was up to me, I'd keep Stewart and Goodson, and let D-Will walk after this season

[Mother Grabber]

Williams was much more productive than Stewart. Would be a mistake to let him go.

[OneBadassCat]

I want to see a little more of what he can do first. We need to hang on to him that's for sure. He can cut and run across the field. He's definitely the fastest RB we have.

[Davis83]

The main problem we have from here out is that we currently have 5 backs that various times all look good. Vaughn looked good today - Sutton has looked good at times - D-Will and Stew have a history of being good (but have now become injury prone).

I'd keep: D-Will or Stew (but not both), Goodson, Vaughn, Sutton and find some way for at least 2 of the 3 to be on the field every play - some plays all 3 with 1 in the slot.

Trade either D-Will or Stew while they still have some value.

[chef17]

I would need to see more games where he is the main guy. If he can be as productive as the other two then I would be fine with it.
