No. I'm saying if Williams is untradeable I would then have no choice but to trade Stew. Common sense, no?

No, Stewart is 24 and can potentially be a beast for years to come.

Williams is 28 coming off two injury plagued season....hasn't but together a game worthy of his money since Nov of 09. Williams might be a beast for another year or so....and then is a complimentary RB. I personally, I never expect to see the 2008 Williams again....and that is the guy worth his extension.

All I know is if our run game can only put up 56 yards on the ground, is there really any reason to keep both, Stewart and Williams?

Even if we get 100....what's the point of having both when we could get some excellent trade value for them right now? I could be wrong, but I just don't really see us getting back to the point where there's going to be enough run plays to keep both of these guys busy the entire season.

Especially with a rushing QB now on our team.

I say we figure out whose going to be better for us, and trade the other one before the deadline.

really? Seriously?

After one game? Where the opposing team stacked the box, run blitz the whole game to stop our running game?

Gawd, how i love knee jerk reactions. This team isn't going to stop running just cause we are passing more. Last game it was easier to tear them up through the air. That's not always going to work. This team, and this offense isn't going to stop running. Anybody who thinks that needs to get their head checked.

The oline isn't playing bad. They actually played pretty well against arizona, considering how many guys they were trying to block.

I also love how we have no depth, cause they are young guys? Where do you think depth comes from?

Stop bashing the oline when ya obviously have no freakin' clue.

Oh, we are not trading away any running backs.

Ya don't improve a team by taking away it's strengths.

What's with the hate on D-will? It was 1 game and neither RB looked good. Since when have we ever judged him based on 1 game?

Last season + 1 game?

His last good game was against the Saints in 2009. Yeah, he broke a 70+ yarder a few weeks later against Miami, but he really hasn't done much since that Saints game.

Rushing game.

I'm thinking I may have been wrong this offseason about needing DeAngelo Williams, and preferring him over Stewart. Maybe that will change after this week's game with Green Bay if they run it more and he's successful, but I'm not liking DeAngelo's body language at all over the last 5 weeks.

Looks like Stewart is a better fit for this new offense than DeAngelo, because DeAngelo doesn't like blocking (he's smaller and not as strong as Stewart) and I don't think he likes having to catch passes across the middle. DeAngelo all of a sudden looks tiny and frail out on the field.

I expect the Panthers to focus on establishing the run against Green Bay to keep Rodgers off the field. Williams needs to start showing some life.

Williams will be fine. He's usually a slow starter anyways.
