Stewart most elusive back in NFL

I love Stewart, we all do. He's not the most elusive back in the nfl though.....

Yards after contact plays a large role in their calculation, and how many times have we seen Stew pinball his way to an additional 3-4 years on his way to the ground?

Since it's context appropriate...

Ranked no.1 in the league by PFF, ahead of Fred Jackson, Forte, AP, etc. Can we get him some more carries Chud?

In years past DeAngelo was 1 of the top ranked most elusive, ranked higher than JStew. The stat is interesting, but not a functional stat like yards per carry average. Elusiveness does not always translate into a high YPC. You can notice that by the fact that D-Will has a higher YPC avaerage that JStew, yet only 8 more attempts rushing this year.

This is not a knock on JStew, more on the fact that there is a stat for everything & some are made just to keep more statiticians employed. ;)

Yeah, he's really elusive. Hard for the defense to hit him when he's standing on the sideline all game.

:lol:

True. Why both he & D-Will do not have more yards is d/t to the scheme & focus on the passing game. We have 2 of the best RBs in the league...USE THEM! (sorry for screaming)

    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those. 
    • This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like. 
    • If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
