Who starts: Stewart or Goodson?

If J.Stewart is cleared to play Sunday, then who starts? Williams/Stewart haven't been able to put up a 100+ yard rushing game this season. Goodson has two in a row. Stewart may very well be the starter, just from last years tape alone, but if it's from a John Fox prespective: "gives us the best chance to win", then could it be Goodson?

Thoughts?

It depends on how well the line is blocking. If they get some movement Stewart can get some carries, if not Goodson needs a bulk of the carries.

Goodson is a better reciever as well so that helps as Jimmy spread the ball around very well last game.

Stewart will be totally ineffective until the O-line can give him some holes to run through.

well, the OL has opened holes for Goodson the last 2 weeks. Can't argue against that. Sure, he creates some on his own but holes have been there. If holes are being opened up to run in then Stewart needs the carries.

the Browns are good against the run so there probably won't be good holes. In that case, Goodson should get more reps b/c he is more dangerous w/ Clausen checking down to him.

Goodson with Stewart spelling him off the bench.

Goodson has done nothing to lose his job - yes he started the season as the 3rd choice, but right now he's our #1. It's all about what you've done for the team lately in this league and Stewart has done nothing.

Courtesy, loyalty and patronage says Stewart should start but if he can't get it done, its like Janet Jackson said, 'What have you done for me lately'. Goodson has it going on with this bullshit line for some reason. Can't figure it out all I know is we have alot of talent and this crap of not having any vets is bull, we have enough, just lead.

Goodson doesn't tiptoe up to the line of scrimmage after taking the hand-off. Let Stewart get the back up carries.

I agree...Goodson has been a lot more decisive with his cuts. Even when there is nothing there he can make a move or two and pick up something whereas Stewart would go right into the like for no gain. Dont know what his deal is this year but he looks as bad as our QB's or oline has this year.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
