I agree that it is possible but also doubtful. I can't get over how similar these guys are. If they didn't have different numbers it would really be hard to tell them apart when they are running the ball. Both run with power, have shiftiness and good speed when they break into the open. That must be really hard on the defense when they just keep pounding over and over.

What really amazes me is the fact that Foster kept getting the bulk of the carries last year. Did the coaches not see that DWill had what it takes to get the job done? Foster! What were we thinking?!

That's on John Fox,he did the same thing with Davis/Foster;especially during the Superbowl and all of '05.

I think the fact of the matter is Foster was let go after the season. Whether Williams started last year or not, we still needed Foster in there at times to give Williams a breather. Who else would do it... Nick Goings? Near the end of the season, it was pretty obvious that Fox was upset with Foster's production, Dwill started getting more and more carries and he had several good games to end the season. Don't think for a second that it didn't occur to them. All in all, releasing Foster meant drafting a power rb that foster never lived up to be, and I'm glad we have Stewart now, who know if we would have drafted Stewart if Dwill started last year.

Williams and Stewart are already better than Davis and Foster ever were. Both of those guys are very special and they are kind of similar but Stewart can make all of the runs too he's not just a power guy. Williams is more elusive but he's also capable of running guys over. Stewart never goes down after first contact and hits you like a ton of bricks.

Does anybody really give a sh*t as long as we win? Stewart knows he's a key cog in the offense. So does DeAngelo, the coaching staff, the QB, the front line. One thousand is just a number and if you ask the old schoolers, they'll tell you it no longer means a thing since we now play more games than we used to when it meant something...

If he got 1,000 that would be a great stat to see on NFL.com or something similar. Truly putting a great cap on the regular season of our dominant running game. That said, it would be really difficult to do, as he would have to average over 100 yards a game to get there, probably only touching the ball ten-fifteen times. Not exactly an easy accomplishment.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
