I think we should remind ourselves that we have the best RB's in football and the best RB core in the game!! We haven't drooled over them in a long while!:D:D

1. Deangelo Williams

2. Jonathan Stewart

3-32. EVERYONE ELSE

Yes...And I think we souldnt be letting any of these 2 guys go. They are the heart of our offense for sure.

Running backs are only as good as your OL. Our line has been in steady decline (just short of free-fall) since 2008.

In 2009 and 2010 they were able to improve dramatically at the end of the season. But they're getting older and we need a group who can put it together for the entire regular season (and playoffs, hopefully).

I never thought I would say this, but we should consider trading one of them IF we can get a solid QB. If we can't, then keep them. We can't compete in our conference with Matt Ryan and Drew Brees.

I'm confident that Rivera's schemes will handle those two. Its Freeman who scares me.

I think the relationship is about mutual. Deangelo wouldn't have had all those long runs in 08 if it wasn't for him being a badass. Our line isn't that old at all. Gross is the only one in his 30's if I'm not mistaken. Wharton will last a good while longer. We just need to shore up RG and draft or sign a tackle with some potential so that we can groom him in the event one of the tackle's goes down.

Schwartz can be a good RG and a suitable tackle. What we really need is for Duke Robinson to emerge and maul people with Otah. That will solve a lot of depth problems.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
