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.

    • Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO 
    • Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years 
    • Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
