The Top 50 NFL Running Backs of 2011


Recommended Posts

I wrote an article detailing Top 50 NFL Running Backs over at the all-haled Bleacher Report.

Constructive criticism is welcomed and I'll do my best to avoid an argument this time DavethePanther. :D

49. Mike Goodson, Carolina Panthers

Goodson is another fourth round pick who has exceeded expectations thus far.

In his second year in the league, he has already put up good numbers in one of the most crowded backfields in the NFL. While Panthers star Deangelo Williams battled injury the entire season, Goodson shined as the compliment back to Jonathan Stewart.

He is very elusive and displays an excellent burst through the hole. He also adds great value as a receiver. However, he needs to solve his fumbling issues before the Panthers increase his workload.

I'll leave the suspense for you to find Stewart and Williams.

Tough to put both Stew and DWill in the top 10, and I tend to agree with their placements. Most of the guys ahead are featured backs and only share a fraction of the wealth. Reading this just makes me want to sign DeAngelo, keep Stew running hard, and get Goodson incorporated more into the passing/return game.

These three studs are imperative to Newton's success. With Double Trouble running as they did in 2008 behind a healthy offensive line, Newton will be able to keep defenses off-balance. It feels damn good to have a threat at the QB position once again.

Here's to a bright future Panther fans, just have a little patience.:cheers2:

Re-signing D-will is a tough decision, for one he's getting older and with age comes injuries. We don't want to sign him and he's always on IR. On the other hand you have a very talented young back who could definitely take Williams place if not resigned. But what happens of J-stew goes down? I can't see Goodson who has fumbling problems as our primary back.

    • Another Guard?? Small ball was just a meme right?????   Again can anyone confirm Kon had more than 2 dunks for the season?? I watched more highlights and saw lots of layups. Did see one thunder dunk tho...   Jeff just needs to finish this off-season with a guard package trade for a PF/C. Call Portland, that's a start!
    • XL treatment is in the top 5 What The Fuccks for the the huddle. It just happens that the 32nd team and 33rd team GMs knew each other very well. Panthers viewed the 5th year option as being worth a late 6th and a trade was made to make XL a 1st rounder.  He had injuries in OTAs, mini camp and TC. Like others had more injuries in season and just kept playing. Half the season was bad BY and dalton. He still had 500 yds, 5 TDs, and like 45 recs.  Just super weird the treatment. BTW people love to focus on the bad plays, but there was only one WR that caught a TD on the AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year, can you guess who that was?? By many accounts the Pats wanted XL badly and had to select Polk instead, there's strong rumors that Polk is either going to be cut or traded for a 2078 7th rounder. Panthers could have easily been in this situation if not for the Bills allowing the trade up. It pays to have friends.... I feel XL will force some fans to plates of raccoon as he develops. (please stay healthy)
