Sorry if this is old, first I've seen it. I guess it'd be hard to argue with #34's position on this list. I'd still put AP #1, CJ #2, MJD #3, JC #4, and MT & DW would be toss ups in my opinion. The biggest factor here, I think, is that DW is the only guy in the top 6 really splitting carries. JC kinda did, but without any research to back it up I'd say Stewart got a larger % of carries than Jones in KC.

Long story short, I really hope we don't lose Deangelo.

the detroit news didn't have a set criteria to qualify players for their list either.

That is true. It was just the writers opinion. I think it was Clay, but ain't sure. Still interesting when others pick your own. Just looked it up and it was Twentyman. I guess the News is following in PFF in doing the best of each position. They had Gross at 7 for Tackles. But he is the only Panthers to make the list at the News.

Yeah... But the News has not done the D-line yet so we shall see about CJ.

    • It's worth noting that we started playing something that looked like football after going down 17-0 against the Dolphins.  Up to that point we had rushed the ball 3 times and Bryce had two turnovers.   Then we ran it 5 straight times with Rico and he started cracking off some big gains and led to our first touchdown.  Another 37 yards of rushing later, Bryce goes 1 yard complete, incomplete, incomplete to get that field goal before halftime.  Then we committed big time to the run in the second half and played some really nice complimentary football.  The Panthers had stumbled on a formula, and it started with Rico being crazy productive.  Something they only learned because Chubba was injured and Bryce started that game so poorly they were forced to lean on Rico. Fast foward to Dallas, they essentially lean into the same game plan against the Cowboys and I think everyone was surprised by how quickly it started to look complimentary.  In my opinion the productive offense really helped the defense as well.  We played quite solid against a top offense. Finally we make our way to the Jets and Bills, Chubba's return.  You can't say the low scoring affair and return to ineffective football against the Jets was all on Chubba, they were indeed a better defense and so was Buffalo.  But the production difference between the two backs in both games was both visually and statistically obvious.  The bigger picture is the offense took a major step back as well.  They are other moving parts and it's isn't all one thing, BY9>Dalton by a decent margin at this point.   But yeah, Rico's vision and athleticism is just better than Chubba and it jumps at you.
    • First day in 3 weeks my pain started to dwindle just a tiny bit.  Got switched from hydrocodone to post-shingles pain patches.  My insurance refused to pay for my patches as I’m too young for shingles per them.  I also need a prescription to get shingles shot and insurance also won’t pay for it even thought I just had shingles and in high risk to get it again.
