Davis really gave us that "keep pounding" mantra in that we just wore down teams that year and foster was a wonderful compliment. Watching him make plays in 03 was magical.

Davis/Foster got us to the superbowl so I guess I'd have to go with them.

Double Trouble is far more talented and fun to watch but right now it's just a tragedy since they're on such a crappy team.

I feel bad for some of the fans that came in at the tail end of Deshaun's run here, that guy was truly an amazing change of pace back. Him and Davis were an absolute force to be reckoned with in '03. I remember when Fos came in against the Colts and absolutely took over that game that year.

no mention of foster/williams?

I'll mention them in the fact that the coaching staff just let DeShaun Foster flop around like a fish out of water while holding Williams back...

I love Foster/Davis in '03 but overall Stewart and Williams really dominated games.

I would. Foster is a much better running back on 3rd downs and when used in a passing offense.

It's true that Foster only started struggling once Fox tried to make him a power back (something D'lo would've been more suited for anyways ironically enough) but Davis in his prime was a monster, he'd run over absolutely anybody. He even did it here. He had so many long runs here because as soon as he got past the DL, there were very few LB's, S's, and CB's who could tackle him 1 on 1. He may not have had breakaway speed once he got there, but in a way I think that benefited us, because with him constantly breaking away for 30 and 40 yard runs, instead of 70 and for a TD, it allowed us to keep possession of the ball and control the clock which we like to do oh so much.

We never really got to see what Foster was capable of. Injuries destroyed him. Plus, didn't tear his ACL or something like that his rookie year?

I think that's what happened, but the best memory of Foster his rookie year was him taking his first career touch for a long rushing TD (although it was preseason..)

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
