Williams was also part of a franchise-record effort, as he ran for a career-high 186 yards and two touchdowns in a 38-23 win over Tampa Bay on “Monday Night Football.” Williams and rookie Jonathan Stewart combined to run for a franchise-best 299 yards against the league’s No. 2 ranked run defense.

...when I said the same thing 8 or so weeks ago. Funny that now, people...not everyone...just a few...are starting to say the same thing.

When I compared him to Adrian Peterson, everyone laughed and said he had not proven that yet.

...and to some degree, they were right. But after having seen DeAngelo play in college, I knew exactly what they didn't. That he is AT LEAST the best running back in the league.

....and....zero fumbles...

I never doubted him. The time/situation just wasn't right before. Now, everything is as it should be for his running game to work for him. Look at all the crazy records he broke in college. He just HAD to get bigger and get into rhythm. When you add another guy who can be successful on downs as well (not Foster) then you can rest your other guy between plays, thus they stay somewhat fresh through the game. But we all knew that already didn't we (referring to those starting RBs threads of yore)?

You got that right. Fox should have made him the starter in the middle of the '06 season when Foster started to struggle. But anyway, glad he is getting the work he deserve. :)

      What to Consider when you Draft in Round 1

      By Growl · Posted

      fans view “box safety” with the same disdain they have when they hear “game manager” QB.   but there’s a reason most 1st round safeties are “box safeties”-it’s a much longer list of requisite skills to be a good box safety than it is to be a guy whose only real responsibility is to not get beat over the top. Fans crave the ed reed type and as someone who has never been able to enjoy this franchise having a guy like that, I get the enthusiasm-but I’m not really prepared to spend a first round pick on a free safety. If it happens it’ll be fun, it’ll address a need with a good player and that’s well and good. But those guys end up walking after their first contract because their pedigree usually outpaces what their teams feel like they’re adding to their overall win total.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By Basbear · Posted

      Its criminal that the upcoming season is mainly in the tiny hands of BY.  I still member the time I did a full turn, if you member his first off-season from that Panthers all-time worst team....... Answering questions at his first presser, he goes along the lines " I didn't do nothing, no weight room or throwing" " I needed to get away". I was fully out with him, the guy didn't even try to improve his football mind, body, strength, in the biggest joke of panther football. I could not believe it, what a leader or dare say "point guard"(lols @ NBA point guards as a ref)

      What to Consider when you Draft in Round 1

      I view FS almost as the NT of the secondary. Oftentimes the true measure of his impact isn't necessarily in the plays that he makes but what he allows you to do with the rest of your defense to allow them to make plays. When you have that elite true sideline to sideline FS safety blanket over the top of the defense it allows you to be a lot more aggressive with everyone else. Where as when you have a Nick Scott as your last line of defense you gotta be mindful to not have to rely too heavily on that.
