YOu might hold Foster but you forgot about Ben Tate and Derrick Ward...arguably the best stable of RBs in the NFL. Foster will go over 1000 this weekend against the panthers and Tate probably will go over 1000 yds next thursday in Indy. I like Stewart and Williams but they are no where close. I used to think the Panthers had the best tandem in the league.

Their three headed monster of Foster, Tate, and Bradshaw avg. 4, 5.6, and 4.2 ypc respectfully.

Our three headed Monster of D-Will, Stew, and Cam avg. 5.2, 4.8, and 5.2 ypc respectfully.

Slight edge going to us. So if the Texans are considered the top running team in the league? Who is making these determinations? Cuz it looks like we are still a team that can run the ball as well, or better, than most anyone.

Just another fun fact to add to my giddy. And GOOOOO CATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

again, i didn't say there weren't good.....said they were overrated.

Bottom line is you can take 2 indentical defenses.....have one play the top 3 offenses in the NFL and one play the bottom 3. One of those statistically will look superior. Texans D has benefited from weak offensive opponents

You are literally repeating what Falcons fans were saying a few weeks ago. Talked about how Ryan was going to pick apart the Texans D and Turner was going to go ape.

If the offense does it's job early and gives the defense a lead to play with it's going to get real ugly real fast.

EDIT: Some graphs denoting team averages in yardage and points and how they fared against the Texans defense:

On average, Carolina scores 24.4 ppg... you scored 28 vs Houston (could've been more)...

Carolina generally gains 393 ypg.... you gained 316.

Your time of possesion is usually 30:50, yesterday it was 32:34 (Good job)

You normally pass for 252.1, yesterday you managed 150

You normally run for 141 per game, yesterday you ran for 166 (55 from your QB which we weren't expecting, still 111 yards out of your running backs against our D is pretty good).

Why wouldn't you have been expected the 55 from Cam? He is probably averaging close to that per game.. don't discredit us.

      Thomas Fletcher Didn’t Make It, But These Four Did

      By Icege · Posted

      The draft isn't a vending machine where you insert a pick, press A3, and out pops a franchise cornerstone. It’s more like a gacha game - you turn in a premium (or non-premium) ticket, hear the fun little jingle, and wait to see what you pulled... without knowing how strong it'll actually end up. League-wide, the average draft hits on about 30 - 40% of its picks when teams have a standard seven selections. So if you walk away with 3 - 4 real contributors... that's considered a solid class. Hitting on 4 out of 11 is right in that range. To be clear: this isn't some veiled endorsement of Tepper, Fitterer, or Rhule. It’s simply an honest accounting of which players from that class are still with the Panthers and heading into their fourth year - and thus outlasting the average NFL career. Just trying to lean more toward more critiquing with clarity, not just lighting it all on fire for the spectacle of the flames.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      Please do not forget that everything the NFL does is for the increase in revenue. If a big market team draws more money [ticket sales, betting revenue, TV ratings & etc.] when they play at home versus on the road in the playoffs, you can safely be sure the NFL knows & will act accordingly. Just like the draft lottery proposal, if the NFL can capture TV ratings for it, they will.

      For a WR, 6'4" 220 would be decent size--if you hit the 235 range, I imagine that it costs you speed. I think his speed was an issue. He ran a 4.48 at his pro day. At the combine, he weighed in at 219 (NFL.com).   Mike Evans weighed 225 as a rookie and is also 6'4".  He ran a 4.53 40.  My main and only concern about TMac is between his ears--and it could be nothing.  He seems a bit silly, and it seems that he is in celebration mode when I want him to be in "let's get to work" mode.  Again, some people are just like that, but when they put the helmet on, they get focused.  I want to see that "dawg" before I get overly excited.  The pick is growing on me, and if you broaden the scope to consider what was available in free agency and the draft, it makes sense.  I don't think we got lesser Edge rushers in the second and third rounds, frankly, than what we could have gotten in the first.
