Stewart most elusive back in NFL

[MattB]

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

So glad we locked up DLo with so much money that we have to give DLo the starting gig to save face.

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

That depends on your take on "elusive". He gets so many missed tackles, not by juking one out, but by simply running people the F over.

I agree, Stew has earned the right to get the most carries @ this point.

Stew has been the guy since the start of the season...

If we focused on running him more we'd probably be more successful in my opinion. He seems to get positive yardage every run play he gets

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...

Sucks we will probably lose Stewart, who is younger and can block and catch because we paid DWill a fortune

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

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. ;)

: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)
